I don't use a mechanical safety on any of my guns - because I use the one between my ears.
I think relying on a mechanical safety as a sense of security actually encourages poor handling habits that lead to an increased risk of a negligent discharge, because people stop using their brain and get lax on the four rules.
Also, if a Glock doesn't fit your hand, don't choose one. You're better off with a gun that's comfortable, and I think it's reasonable to choose something else for that reason. I was speaking more in general regarding people who just seem to dislike Glocks having never even touched one.
