Re: Army likely to "Dump" 9MM for 40s&w or 45's?

Keep in mind that money is going to be a huge factor in selecting a new pistol and/or a new caliber. One of the main reasons the military selected the Beretta 92 over the Sig P226 was due to cost.

I thought it was a trade: Berettas for extended lease on US military bases in Italy.

Glocks can have safeties installed.

As far as I know they're after market installations.
Glocks have come from the factory in the past with a manual thumb safety (17s) for certain police departments.


An aftermarket safety is available:
