Didn't Glock make some guns with thumb safeties for a military contract (England maybe) a few years back. So, it should be possible - from a mechanical standpoint - to do it without effecting reliability. Is the commercial safety just a copy of the one that Glock engineered, was it the reverse, or are they completely unrelated?
For day to day carry - the role a Glock would play for me - I prefer not to have a mechanical safety, but I would definitely be interested to know how, and how well the cominolli safety works. So good luck, and I"ll be sure to follow this thread.
