I am wanting to get a Ruger Mark IV, but what keeps me from getting one is the design of the safety. How I naturally hold a gun, when the safety is off, it hits me right in the thumb in a relatively uncomfortable way. When I am looking at one at a gunstore, I notice it and it is enough for me to be on the fence about getting it. I can't help but think that it would quickly become more than an annoyance if I owned one and took it to the range.
Does anyone else have this issue with the new redesign? My brother's natural hold works with the Mark IV, so I know this isn't an issue with everyone........and I will not buy a gun that I must adjust my natural hold.
So, if I got one, I was thinking about having the safety levers milled down to where they can still be used if needed, but the ledge not being nearly as pronounced.
Thoughts?
Oh, I'm wanting to get that Diamond Grey Light that uses the aluminum lower frame.
