If the "safe action" is so safe, why do I hear so many media reports about people accidentally shooting themselves - with Glocks? Is this a competition in which S&W is trying to be a viable contender?
I use the safety on my Shields; I don't ignore them.
I came from 1911's, and I didn't ignore those safeties either.
I have no intention of replacing my Shields with those new-fangled Schlocks (or Ghields)...

I agree
I fail to see how carrying these guns with no thumb safety is different than carrying a 1991 cocked but not locked
These guns are COCKED you just can't see the striker
IMHO
Semiautos should all be designed with DA triggers like on a revolver
Then you wouldn't have to worry about safeties
