All DA revolvers safe, but consider better vehicle carry method.
Vermonter,
You shouldn't have to worry about attempting to find a revolver with a manual safety, as most don't have one. As with the other posts in reply to your question, the combination of the heavy trigger pull and the internal safeties should not pose any concern of accidental discharge for you.
However, your concern of the gun "bouncing around" in your glove box has me concerned about general gun safety. First of all, most glove boxes don't lock anymore, which means if someone broke into your car when you're not around and the gun would be in their, you just lost a very expensive investment, and furthermore, could be opening yourself a legal "can of worms" should that now-stolen firearm be used to committ a crime. Second of all, it's a gun: an expensive investment that I'd want to keep well secured and not "bouncing" so as to cause damage to the gun's finish.
I'd recommend using a lock-box that can be stored in your trunk or under the driver's seat (I prefer the driver's seat). There's an automotive electric safe available from Gall's Inc. (
http://www.gallsinc.com) that mounts down in your vehicle, directly wires to your vehicle's electrical system, and has a swtich which can be discreetly mounted that when pressed, pops open the drawer from underneath the seat, allowing instant access to your weapon. It also has a key override in case of electrical system failure.
This is just a suggestion. I personally carry my gun on my person, even when driving. If I do need to store my weapon in my vehicle. I unload it and secure it to the inside of my trunk with a cable lock, taking the ammo with me.
If you have any questions with what I've posted here, just e-mail me.
