Builder45,
That is a cute cliche, "The safety switch on any firearm is between your ears." If you are speaking for yourself, then that is fine. What happens when you have 100 agents who are on the range only twice a year and most are NOT gun oriented?
The only nation I ever knew about that omitted a safety on their issue rifles was France. I have yet to get a good explanation why they went that route.
If you are ever present when a group of armed folks have a job to do, you will appreciate the "Load and Lock" drill and forget the "between the ears" cliche. NOT all agents are gun oriented.
