Absolutely. I'm not "gun dumb either and all my M&Ps have the thumb safety for commonality. Given a preference, I don't mind the magazine safety either.

The advantage of having a DA revolver or Glock is pull the trigger and they go bang. Minimal instruction, minimal effort.

I personally like the idea of having to be somewhat familiar with your firearm to make it go BANG. Familiarity a drug crazed home invader may not have.

And if I want one, I have the freedom to have it on my handgun.
