    Another good argument for revolvers. They don't need no steenkin' safety.

    The Op should try shooting a Glock 43.

    I am not a Glock guy, because I want an external safety, but I sure can shoot that thing.

    I like my new 43. Just put this TLR 6 light/laser combo on it. Takes up zero extra space.

    Ok, without opening I am in the market for a 9mm. I really thought I was going to want an FNX9, but after fondling it at 2A, I'm not a big fan of the grip. The checkering is very aggressive, and almost uncomfortable. For comparison, I love the comfy rubber grip on the SR22 that I just picked up.

    So that being said, these are the criteria I am looking for;
    1) 9mm
    2) manual safety
    3) decocker
    4) larger capacity mag (something more than 10)
    5) smaller grip so it will be easier for my kids to transition to it

    I know the last two are kind of opposites of each other. But the grip on the FNX seems like a good size. Any suggestions?
