I wear a jacket very similar to this one quite a bit during fall/spring and sometimes winter, with an MTAC IWB or a Minotaur OWB, depending. All of this stuff is obvious until it happens. Anyway, it cannot hurt to remember! http://www.gundigest.com/handgun-reviews...p;rid=233891050God bless!

Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Matthew 5:11
Indeed we call blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of the perseverance of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, because “the Lord is compassionate and merciful. James 5:11

Always good to get a cautionary tale. Thanks, Airdrop.
The issue is not p*ssy. The issue is monkey.

Safety not engaged, or is the Sig using a trigger-front safety? There are no external safeties on 200 series SIGs. All the safeties are internal. Just like a DA revolver, if you keep your booger hook off the trigger you're all good. Well unless you get a pull cord caught in there as you re-holster apparently...

Thanks for the explanation Colt. Reminds me to never consider a gun like that (though the 229 is damn sweet). Would you be afraid to carry a double action revolver with a hammer block safety? Same thing. The SEALs have been using the P226 since the mid-80s. The Secret Service and DHS use the P229. It's perfectly safe unless your trigger discipline is crap and then you'd be a menace with ANY gun.

Safety not engaged, or is the Sig using a trigger-front safety? I have a 229-SCT, not quite the same as the DAK in the article, but almost, but with a further measure of safety over the DAK in my opinion, with the addition of a manual de-cocking lever. The 229 does not have a manual safety. Further, the DAK model is Double Action only, with no de-cocking lever. -Skater

I'm not sure the trigger getting caught on something qualifies as bad trigger discipline - of course I'm a very occasional shooter with little experience, but to me the later means to keep my finger off unless I want to hit something. Mechanical snags are never fully excluded...

I have a habit of running my finger outside of the trigger guard while holstering, just to check for obstructions...
