Kahr's don't have second strike capability...do Glocks, XD's, or M&P's?

Verra Nice. How much does the titanium frame weight in relation to an aluminum alloy?

Aren't there nachos involved as well?

He might not "belong" but he'll sure invite himself whenever he feels like it! I feel carrying a BUG is appropriate if you are a "belt AND suspenders" kind of guy. It's a personal choice I feel has both merits and drawbacks, but to dismiss the idea out of hand is silly.

Heh, I feel dirty when buying tools at Harbor Freight, but then I don't feel so guilty when I only use them twice a year. Sometimes (not every time, not even most of the time) cheap is the answer.

I have a newer pt92 with the integrated rail on the frame and yes, mine does have the lock. It's low on the backstrap.

Looks like it has the exact same front-strap angle as a glock, although the back strap is quite different. So what else does it have going for it other than a low number of parts? A great man once said, "Make things as simple as possible, but no simpler" While I think your subtle humor has...

The manual safety argument is a circular one - if you're smart enough to practice trigger discipline, you're smart enough to use a manual safety. Likewise, if you're too stupid to practice trigger discipline, then a manual safety isn't going to save you. My gut feeling is that adding a manual...

What makes me feel safe? People making sound decisions. If you don't want to carry a weapon with an external safety (and do it safely) that's great, I'm all for individualism. But don't try to justify your opinion with a logically flawed argument, especially under the guise of "helpful advice"...

A common myth among the "glock faithful" is that to practice trigger discipline, you absolutely MUST carry a firearm without an external safety. To date, no one has actually proven this assertion, but they like the sound of it so much, it just pops out of their keyboards all the time...

Don't post that! Don't you know glocks are PERFECT! :) Seriously though, you can't buy one of those, they were made at the request of one big government contract. Which government, I do not recall.
