    Some of you probably viewed the thread on the Mil-Spec. I truly tried to like the thumb safety but it literally didn’t didn’t get the job done with the grip safety. Most thumb safeies with a rear shelf tend to move my strong hand thumb out and down. I prefer the GI paddle. Even on my extended thumb safeties I move the rear of the paddle forward.
