guns

I gotta step in here. Back when I carried my Glock 19, I would carry it in a kydex appendix holster at about 1o'clock. I did so for the comfort, concealability, and accessibility. Never did I worry about an accidental discharge with it for a number of reasons.

The aforementioned passive safety systems were one of them. There was no way that gun was going to go off unless I drew it and pulled the trigger. The other reason was my particular holster. It was constructed of a hard kydex shell that formed to the exact shape of the gun. Retention was provided by the design of the shell, "clipping" the gun into place. Not only was it not going anywhere until I intentionally drew it, but it would be impossible for anything to access the trigger while the gun was in my holster.

Safe carrying is all about knowing your system, which includes your gun and holster; how they work and how to utilize them properly. I can't speak on behalf of those who would have a negligent discharge, and frankly, I don't care. They are not me.

If only that FBI agent had received some firearm training this never would have happened.

I've never believed them to be the most competent organization.

I don't understand how anyone EDC's a Glock. What a PITA that would be. Not worth it IMO.

I think training on doing back-flips with a holstered gun was suggested by Horowitz.

Another irrelevant post.
Keep up the good work face.

I have one for my SCCY CPX-2 and my Glock 26.
Covers the trigger for safety and easy access.
I carry mine at 3 o'clock or 6 o'clock.

Which is I why like with any time I try carrying something else, I inevitably went back to snubnose.

6 o'clock carry's positioning can be nice but I've just never been able to get over the idea of having a big, hard piece of metal right on my spine. If I slip and fall, get pushed, or even (God forbid) wreck my motorcycle, I'm friend*ed.

I carry a Sig P220 in a thigh holster.
In MN it is a Carry Permit.
Doesn't have to be concealed
