I have one. It definitely rubs you and makes it uncomfortable. I changed it out for an AK style safety. You can get just a safety delete as well for about 12$ or so which is just a flat piece. I’ve even seen people take a Dremmel and shave down the safety and that’s a good fix. Either way you have plenty of options. HBI is the main website for these I believe.

They are awesome.
There are many accessories you can get to make them 'more the way you want'. I changed the grip, the charging handle, the trigger and trigger-spring, and a really useful 'AK style' safety for the right side.

I’ve eyed them up several times. Shot a buddies at the range and thought it was ok. I struggle that virtually everywhere you touch is plastic. In the end, the only thing to gain over a 9mm ar is the folding stock but loose all the great things about an AR, specifically great triggers and interchangeable uppers. I decided that if I was going to spring for a new 9mm it would be a B&T...just waiting for the Glock lowers to come out.

I can confirm that the safety will rub. I can also confirm that it can be swapped for a $12-15 part in less than a minute.
I can definitely confirm it is the gun I love to shoot the most. Get it.

I have the Scorpion Carbine. Love it. Yes the right side factory safety will rub you raw.
I did swap out right side safety to the HBI long safety. Took about 5 mins.

I have one, it’s one of my favorite shooters, the safety does rub but you can swap it out.

I have one. It is one of my favorite guns to shoot. I did the safety delete on the right side so it doesn't rub. I put a Holosun red dot on it.

Enablers - all of you...I guess I have a decision to make once I sell my HK45: 1911 or the Scorpion? Can’t do both with 2 kids in college...
If you decide on a Scorpion let me know I’ve been eyeing the HK SP5K but can’t justify having 2 that are so similar. I think we both live in the same area NW Baltimore County so if you want to try it out we could meet at CA, I’ll even supply the ammo

In my opinion, the safety selector problem is totally overblown. I say shoot it first and see if you're bothered by it. If you don't like it, then it's an easy fix with the safety delete or the ak style selectors. I'm not bothered by it too much so I haven't changed yet. It totally shouldn't deter you from picking one up. Scorpions are awesome and you wouldn't be disappointed. There is also great aftermarket support for it. Attached is a picture of my Scorpion pistol with an ACR tailhook brace and my buddies pistol with a zhukov tailhook brace. Both brace adapters designed by danhagadesigns.com

Thanks!!! I had an oem CZ stock with a tailhook adapter on it for a while, which was really nice, but this ACR setup is much better. Not only does it look awesome, but I think it balances much better than oem.
Whatever way you go with a stock/brace setup, you can't go wrong with a Scorpion. Very accurate, easy to clean, and a joy to shoot. Puts a smile on my face every time I shoot it. The worst part is making sure I have enough food to feed it
