    When the trigger is pulled on the Glock it disengages 3 safeties AND loads the striker spring at the same time.

          we did not expect it either,, and i know the glocks have undergone several variations and mods since the introduction of them,, the glocks were new on the market and the debate was the same then,, how unsafe the colt was compared to a glock

            Still safer than a SIG

              I rock the 45 XD as my everyday carry - not the SXD but the full size. I do not have any concerns; there are multiple safeties such as the palm and trigger safety.

                Pssshhhh, The SIG was a design feature. Have a bad guy behind a wall? Throw your 320 in the air at an angle where it hits pointing at said bad guy. Problem solved. Why anyone would have used the "voluntary upgrade" to get rid of the most revolutionary design in the past 30 years is unknown to me.

                    Pick away, I carry with one in the chamber and will add my XD's back into the batting order!

                      I carry an XD and have never given a thought about it.

                        and the trigger knows no difference between a finger and a shirt tail or even inertia.

                          The inertia part is not true. Do you know how a Glock trigger system work?

                            I've owned several Glocks and XD's as well as 1911's. I've never had or seen one discharge on their own. I keep my XD hot at all times. It's just important to know that any gun has a potential to fire in certain unusual situations. Watch the muzzle and keep the trigger clear and it should be safe.

                              I always thought all striker fired guns were cocked when the slide is racked? Is Glock different?

                                yeah, you pull trigger, it goes boom.

                                Ok, inertia may be a bit of a stretch. But, what distance is their drop test? 6' 8'.

                                If you drop it off the house? 3 floor?
