Personally I like my external safety on my SR9. It's a bit small but it's positioned so that it is very easy to sweep off during the draw. However, I do recognize the risks involved in not training with the safety. As a result, I make myself activate and deactivate the safety every single time I shoot. It's fairly automatic at this point, and I even find myself trying to sweep off non existent safeties when I shoot my dad's Glock or other guns without a thumb safety.

This is all personal preference of course, and I certainly recognize the benefits of a simple point and shoot handgun with no external complications. However, I do appreciate the extra level of comfort a manual safety provides. It's all a compromise however, and hopefully if the worst ever happens my practice will pay off.
