The grip safety is what de-activates the firing pin block. The gun is safe to drop when the grip safety is not depressed. Also, when reholstering, releasing the grip safety prevents discharge while holstering. Finally, with a holster that covers the trigger guard and has a strap that goes around the back of the slide, the gun is significantly safer for people who throw guns in purses.
