What was it that Sonny an Cher sang, "And the beat goes on." 

The M9 has zero chance of going off without the trigger being pulled, and because Beretta designed it for soldiers, that long, heavy double action pull is a fantastic safety. It's almost like the designers realized the requirements of a service pistol and built a fantastic weapon to meet those needs.I can say with 100% certainty that my M9 was fully locked and loaded, hammer decocked, safety off when we rolled outside the wire in Iraq.
