Don't mean to derail the thread, but do you mind explaining why it's not as drop safe? I was under the impression the trigger "safety" on a glock was to keep the trigger bar from moving rearward as both the trigger and bar on a glock move the same direction. In the 320 design, it isn't needed as the trigger bar moves forward when the trigger is moved to the rear. I do admit I could be wrong as I haven't researched this exhaustively (mostly due to lack of relevant info available on the topic).
To the OP, I own a 320 full size and enjoy shooting it. I don't see an advantage over my glock or m&p, or any other striker fired pistol. It shoots well and seems to be reliable so far. However, I am not a trigger snob, as I cut my teeth on mil spec ar triggers and Berettas in the army. It would be a solid choice and represents a good value, but I wouldn't discount other designs.
I don't know anything about the guts or the "why" of it. I am not qualified to explain why it is the case. I'm afraid I can't say much without betraying a confidence, but someone I trust who was in a position to know told me of the concern. I'm also aware of a real world oopsie, nothing I responded to personally but again from someone I trust and who had not made it public info. I like to cite sources and be able to say how I know what I know in these types of things, but in this case I can't ethically do that.
In short, waist high drop, no problem. Head high drop, can be a problem. Unless you're really short, I guess.
