If you keep trigger locks on a gun storage cabinet from Cabela's or Canadian Tire, when they go on sale for ½ price. I buy the five pack of combo trigger locks from Amazon.

Plenty of Glawks out there if that's what you want, kinda like the BiC pen of guns, plastic, reliable, brand name. Not a fan myself, I can group with them but there are much more fun guns.

What would you recommend? I'm a beginner and it would be my first ever firearm. Everybody recommended a G19 for me but I'm willing to hear other options. The problem is right now I think all that's left are a few CZ's.

Also, I saw a CZ75 Omega and almost bought one myself. Shadow2 is very good.

I have no idea why they put it on in the first place. Nobody uses mag readers any more.
