The trigger finger *always* points straight forward as the gun is drawn from

designed holster completely encloses the trigger guard.

If I liked everything else about a gun, the presence of a safety wouldn't
keep me from buying it. Another "safety" involves not carrying with a round
in the chamber. With practice, you can work the slide *very* fast without
interrupting things.


Hmmm. You a cop? Nice disguise.

Joe isn't wrong. I have a custom molder "hard plastic" holster for my
Sig. When the handgun is in the holster, you simply cannot get a finger
or anything else onto the trigger to pull it, because the trigger guard
is completely covered by the holster.

Here's a photo of my Sig:

The black lever fully on the frame just below the hammer is the safety.

I'll have to see if I have a photo of the handgun in its Blade-Tech
holster. When it is, you simply do not see the trigger or trigger guard.
They are covered.

I only have a round in the pipe when I am out in the forest where the
feral dogs and bears live. With a round chambered, there's room for 19
additional rounds in the magazine.

If a round is not chambered, I can cycle the slide and get a round in
the pipe as fast as you can blink an eye, or thereabouts.
