I really like a thumb safety on a hand gun (not on the Shield through). Not to protect myself from.... well myself, but to protect myself against a successful gun grab. In the heat of the moment, the other person wouldn't even know there is a safety on the gun and by the time they try to do anything about it I would have already have my BUG in gear.
I learned this from personal experience as my dad is still alive today because he carried a gun with a safety on it and the other guy couldn't fire it. With that being said, when I ordered my M&Ps, non of them came with a safety as I like to keep my guns as uniform as possible so if one gun as a safety, all of them would have to have to one.
