(That said, I don't use the external safety on the BG 380. It's pointless on a DAO gun, and it is *extremely* difficult to actuate.)
...I do agree in my normal carry conditions...at times the gun is in my night stand and not that my wife would even want to touch it....if Im simply storing it there I will go ahead and use the external safety as one more shred of peace-of-mind. Other than that...it is indeed pointless.
