Previous military/LE. I'm no expert by any measure, but I've got a clue. IMHO this is exactly why striker fired handguns took off. Actually safer than revolvers were at the time they were introduced (or that was the perception), yet it solved the 'cocked and locked' debate. Pull and fire. Triple safety design with the simplicity of a revolver. As much as I like 1911's, I'd never carry one as a personal protection. Not because the design is unsafe, but because I've never developed muscle memory to trust my life to it. Well that, and the weight.

If you aren't confident enough with your ability to safely carry a sidearm with one in the pipe, you probably shouldn't be carrying a loaded gun in the first place.
