If any of you weirdoes that can't keep your finger from fiddling with the trigger when you shouldn't, there is a company that will give you the manual Glock safety of your dreams:

Youre very welcome. I did a little digging to find it. I have heard rumors of such a thing, but never saw anything like it. The Taiwanese cross bolt safety is especially odd to me.

Why would your carry gun be in a location where someone could grab it? And why would I unload my carry gun at the end of every day?

Some do, I have seen people walking around in store like wally world not paying attention to who was near their strong side, and carrying a firearm. I have known of officer leaving their handgun in the bathroom in a store. A safety might keep some dumb ash from shooting it.

Glocks are fine guns. And are safe as long as someone who does not know better grabs one by the trigger.
Drop proof for sure. If one unloads their EDC every day, at the end of the day, there is little reason for concern. But not everyone does. I'm not slamming Glocks. With a thumb safety like a Shield has, almost flush and fairly stiff, one has the option of either position.
I'm just suggesting there is a market for Glocks with a thumb safety.

No firearm is stupid proof. Hence the rules of handling firearms. Use a freaking holster and keep your booger hook off the bang switch.

Do y’all want a safety for a J-frame too?

Because maybe you’re an idiot that doesn’t use a holster and grabs firearms by the trigger… and won’t use a safe if around idiots with easy access to your firearm?

(I’m not calling ok corgi an idiot, just answering who would be the answer to his questions)

already have one, hence why i keep a handcuff key on my keyring. draw, stick the key in, unlock, put keys back in pocket, acquire sight picture, fire.

Thing is that the Glock has safety features in the firing mechanism. Which is good in that it will only fire when the trigger is pulled. However if one wants it to not fire in any scenario, [trigger pulled], it needs a thumb safety that halts and disables the firing mechanism. This from a FUDD.
