For a variety of reasons, I have pretty much decided that I prefer pistols that have a manual safety. My job requires that I carry an issued Glock 22. I have handled and and dry fired an FNS pistol and I am impressed with it. I am considering picking up an FNS with a safety for off duty carry and competition. Almost all of my experience shooting is with Glocks and I am very used to them. I am interested in the FNS because it has a manual safety; it is not totally dissimilar to a Glock; and the ergonomics feel much better than a Glock. Would it be problematic to practice, shoot and carry 2 different styles of pistols? I am figuring that practicing with an FNS with a safety would not be a problem because at worst I would swipe my thumb to remove the non-existent safety on the Glock. I would like to get some input from all the people here who are much wiser and more experienced than I am. My question is about the wisdom or lack thereof of carrying 2 different guns rather than whether or not the other gun should be an FNS or M&P, etc.
My gut instinct is that my shooting is at a point where it might actually benefit from exposure to a different platform.
