Absolutely, when making entry I see no problem in using the trigger finger as your safety. The only "problem" arises when you have to sling the weapon to either cuff/search/or go h2h. An "open" trigger just hanging there to get caught on something is bad juju. If you put the safety on and then need to shoot again quick....I thing you see the point. You want a system that is more efficient to manipulate. The AR safety is so easy to use you can go in safe and flip to fire almost as fast as you can pull the trigger. Ive seen some after market refit kits for the MP, looks promising. I just dont know why HK wont address it. Its a common complaint.
