Pointed at your head.Exposed trigger and hammer.Doesn't seem like it would be to far fetched for this to get cocked and fire by accident while in the sheath.

Well having the gun pointing down on your boys when you sit down is'nt exactly safe either.
 
Love that site.
I carry my 1911 in a Galco belt holster.If it discharges in the holster all it is likely to do is graze my leg.
I get a kick out of seeing people put a cocked and locked 45 in the front of thier paints.
 
ok, that is way too wierd. just last night i posted about the same damn thing over on a pistol board i read. very odd, you dont by chance happen to read the walther P99 boards do you?
 
Yes it is perfectly safe.The cylinder is indexed with the firing pin between chambers and in the safety notch,otherwise the pistol can't be inserted into the kydex sheath.I owned one of those sheaths for my NAA Mini-Mag and later traded the outfit for another type firearm.tom.:cool:

PS You can't cock the hammer with the pistol in this sheath.It's molded very tightly and the kydex is quite stiff.
 
Thats good to know.So the pistol cant be cocked with out the cylinder turning and it can't turn while in the sheath.
 
And in addition the hammer is not resting on or over a primed shell butt rather in an indent between shellheads so an impact on the hammer won't fire it. And the piece is of course single action only.

With those points given... It is still possible for some stupe to try and defeat the inherent safeties and try to grab it by the hammer on the draw in order to cock as it comes out. Darwin's law should weed those guys out pretty quick tho.
 
I have carried one of my Glocks IWB front index in the past. Just couldn't get over the feeling of having that thing pointed at my..umm..stuff. There's no safety of course, although the excellent sheath did cover the trigger guard, however I would only carry un-cocked as it were with the trigger pulled (slower into action but less likelihood of an accidental discharge). I don't worry carrying IWB behind my right hip though because I'm a skinny feller and I don't have much of an ass cheek to shoot off anyways.
 
Quite a while ago I made a minimalist neck rig for that gun with a barrel plug. I don't begin to cock it until it's pointed in a safe direction. It looks kind of cute dangling there by the barrel plug -- no one would ever guess it's a real gun I'm wearing around my neck. :cool:
 
I had a set of those Crimson Trace lasergrips for a revolver. They give you a warning sticker to put on the pistol cautioning you against shining the laser in your eye. I found this ironic, since shining the laser in your eye meant you had a gun pointed at your head. Anyone need a sticker?
 
A friend of mine went to work for one of the smaller local departments, the kind with rather lax hiring standards...

He had a "co-worker" who was fond of stuffing his huge nickle-plated .44 magnum into his pants, sans holster. My buddy kept cautioning him against this practice, saying, "someday, you'll shoot your #$?! off."

Well, one day my buddy calls us on the phone, but he's laughing so hysterically it takes him five minutes or so to get a sentence out.

Seems the guy had shot his #$?! off....

Probably qualifies for a Darwin, as lack of further reproduction puts you in the running.
