Many of my friends have them now and are very impressed. We have a guy in my area who does fantastic work on the M&Ps. Chris Costa did a you-tube review awhile back on his trigger, deep full serrations and Joey's extreme grip reductions. Anyways, he did the trigger (new sear) and other work on mine last Friday right after I bought it. S&W knocked this one out of the park.

I don't think people wanted the safety .. more like S&W felt that it was needed for someone carelessly jamming it into a pocket. Good for S&W to compromise and make it quite recessed for those who did not want the safety.
