I'd strongly encourage you to shoot them both. Some of the "opinions" expressed here about the Glock's "everlite" trigger are pretty skewed. Glocks are no more susceptible to unwanted discharges than are any other pistols; there are just more Glocks in the hands of l.e. than any other brand, so you hear more about Glocks.

Nobody who knows much about firearms would use l.e. as an example of a class of folks who know much about firearms.

Just GOT to add: Anybody who "worries" about a Glock's trigger safety needs to look really hard for something about which to worry.
