I will hopefully have a M&P45 with the safety this week. I have always liked the idea of a safety on any gun. Just makes me feel better knowing it is there. What made you want the 45 with the safety??

I don't like safeties but I assume some will want it because they are 1911 guys and it allows their training to be more consistent.

I transtitioned from a 1911 to a non safety M&P 45, I looked at the safety model and felt the safety itself felt "cheap" and kind of flimsy, made me worry about breakage so I got the non safeety version.

I hate the safety on M&P45...my first reaction when I saw it was 'booo'. I mean why? :? M&P is a great gun and was just fine w/o the safety. I have nothing against 1911s but I hate the 'hold ' it has on other guns...



but at the end it's all about personal prefference...

I agree 100%



Here is the ambi-safety on my M&P45.

In the pic the safety is in the off/down position. When on/up, the safety (red) blocks the trigger bar (blue) from rearward movement. A simple and good design.

I think the thumb up on the saftey is a better grip postion

The purpose of having the Safety is that is what will be required when the M&P is submitted as the candidate for a new US Military sidearm.

First time I shot one it had a safety. I am a Glock guy and own a M&P 40C. Pointed M&P45 in safe direction, loaded mag, racked slide, took aim at target, attempted to pull trigger.....doh.....safety is on. Yes my fault. But that is all I needed to know that I am never going to carry with a safety.

Mine has none...and if it were to have one I would want a SA trigger as well



I might consider it if they offer it single sided



the pics make it look like that might be possible?????



I don't like Ambi's...not even on my 1911's

Personally, I would be comfortable with a much lighter trigger on my gun if I can engage a manual safety. If it doesn't have one I wouldn't like the trigger any lighter than the factory one.

Got mine!!!

I traded my 1006 off yesterday and got a nice .45 with the safety. Just got back from the Range and all I can say is WOW!! I had some crap re-loaded hollow point ammo that didn't feed to well in it. That was the only trouble. I swicthed to 230gr. ball and had she ran fine. Got to get more mags, two is too little. I would have shot it more but my hand hurt after loading up and shooting over 150 rounds.
