Shield 9mm with Safety or not?

Here's a pretty good review of the Shield with thumb safety

All of my guns have safeties including the shield. It is what I'm comfortable with. Like what was said before, you need to try one with and without first of all to see how well you operate them.
 
I bought mine before I had a option.
I don't like safety.
I tried firing mine in the dark, it was a no go and couldn't find safety fast. This is problem because my shield is my only gun with a safety, I have 4 others with no safety I carry.

People say practice but in the heat of the moment it could kill you. On the other hand the bad guy get your gun it could save your life,
 
One of the reasons my EDC is a DAO J-frame is simplicity. In extremis, draw and press the trigger.

Of course, that's a about a ten-pound squeeze, which does make a difference. But I think in the unlikely event I went back to carrying an autoloader, if it had a safety I wouldn't use it.
