I never cared for any of the Smith autos either until this pistol was introduced into the market place.
It's recieved mostly great reviews.
They also make the M&P with a thumb safety if your not interested in DAO type trig without a safety. Personally I can keep my finger off the trigger until at which time it's necessary or safe to point and fire. 
Although I must admit that I have five 1911's
1. Wilson Combat CQB with Dawson rail.
2. Night Hawk Custom VT
3. Kimber Tactical Pro II (Terrible gun)
4. SA TRP Operator. (Best value for the money on the market in the 1911 genre, out of the box at least)
5. Colts MkIV/Series 70 Gov model.

So......
The Glock is your Duty Weapon, but you have not fired it except to kill a rattlesnake 
Please tell me I'm mis-reading this.
Good times,
