Nah, makes no difference on the feel. Actually, I am more in tune with my thumb riding the thumb safety, and I can be a pisspot about thumb safeties. Been known to file for hours with files that are nearly smooth, to feel the safety just right. In my last vid I stop shooting after 5 or 6 rounds, adjust my thumb, and finish. That safety has been adjusted since the vid was made. My concern is, while drawing from holster, getting a grip too early, fingers not around the grip. I practice Quick Kill shooting, Half Hip.....alot, normally to forty feet...Self Defense shooting. I have never practiced with a gun that has an aggressive front strap texture, gonna give it a whirl next trip to SC.

Political Correctness is a doctrine, recently fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and promoted by a sick mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end!
