I Live in a free non restrictive state Good Old Kentucky.
I like the 1911 style safety that my M&P9C has. I am use to the 1911 and the safety is just natural. I also have striker fired pistols without the safety. My Glock 43 for example. I like the M&P9C safety. I use it and I am not Gun Stupid. Or at least my antimeres does not let me think that.
In fact I actually had to order mine so I good get the safety, I bought it off of GunBroker new and there was not that many listed when I bought mine.
