Sinistr, I was trying to figure out what I wanted to replace my M&P Shield with because the Shield, as great of a gun as it is, had the thumb safety. My other carry pieces were hammer guns with decockers. I really wanted to get away from having to make that split decision of flipping the safety off or just draw and squeeze.
However, the Shield's safety gave me a measure of comfort. Even though some chose to carry the Shield with the safety off, I would never do that because I replaced the trigger with an APEX trigger which, though a beautiful trigger, was waaayyy to light for comfort.
I began reading about the PPS, casually at first because I was more interested in a PPKS replacing the Shield, but more seriously as time went by. I shoot SIGs too so the P365 was the alternate consideration. One of the factors that finally made up my mind to jump on to the PPS wagon was that striker indicator and how, when holstering, you should get your thumb over it to make sure that the trigger isn't snagged on anything when holstering. It was genius and pretty much capped my decision.
