The Stealth is a nifty little pistol. Size is similar to a Glock 26/27, but the slide is nicely rounded, unlike the blocky Glock. Trigger pull is pretty unique, but easy to shoot well due to its consistency and light pull.

The safety is indeed in a strange place, and not particularly easy to engage or disengage. However, it is debatable whether there is any need to carry the gun with the safety on. The Stealth has an action similar to the Glock, with the striker partially cocked by the slide, and then fully cocked and released by the trigger pull.

As for disassembly, it is particularly easy to field strip, and detail strip the slide. The frame disassembly is considerably more involved than on a Glock.

My $0.02 -- for $250, buy it.
