I have wondered about the police needing an extra safety myself and decided there must be some logic to it. The earlier pistols had both a safety lever and a grip safety. The military removed the grip safety so apparently the soldiers were more expendable than the local constabulary or the average citizen. This could have carried over to the reason for adding a sear safety. Also, there might have been some serious incidents that were not recorded.
