New Glock trigger safety called SiderLock.

glocklvr · #16

I can see the idea behind the product but I bought a glock because of the trigger safety and coming out of the holster in a bad situation I don't want to be slowed by a manual safety that I might forget and definitely don't like the idea of needing to put my finger in the trigger guard before I am ready to make it go bang as I believe has been mentioned in previous posts

If one trains with a manual safety one is no more likely to forget to disengage it than one is to forget to pull the trigger.

This looks very similiar to the Safe-T-Block. I tried the Safe-T-Block for about 12 seconds on my Glock 26 and I decided that for me that it was not a good thing. In my opinion, I feel that pushing a Safe-T-Block or this new one is a ND waiting to happen.

If it is for a Glock, you can get a real thumb safety installed that does not void the Glock warranty. That is what I would recommend. I think it costs ~$100 or so.

Like most folks that go to carrying a pistol without the manual safety, I got comfortable fairly quick. I think that you will too. I carry the G-26 in a Tucker Cover-Up, IWB, that keeps the trigger covered safely. I carry all day everyday and I keep the gun on my person all the time except for the few 30.06 places, and at night when the gun is on the nightstand still in the holster.

I would get a good high quality holster and I bet you will be fine.

Nor should it slow one down. I train so that my safety is off, immediatly after clearing leather, long before its presented.

How do you engage this safety without touching the trigger on a loaded (ready to fire) firearm?
