This afternoon, my wife asked me to run to the store & pick up a few things. As is my habit, I opened my safe grabbed my Sig. P-938, slipped it on my belt and headed for the store. As I was walking across the store parking lot, I sensed that my gun was riding a little low, as the end of the barrel was even with the hem of my jacket. Therefore, I stepped into the men's room to adjust my pants and tighten my belt. As I unbuckled my belt, the weight of my gun pulled the belt out of my hand, then my belt loops and the gun crashed to the floor. Fortunately, I was in a stall, and more fortunately, the gun did not discharge. For those of you unfamiliar with the P-938, it is a hammered single action auto loader similar in design to a 1911, and you carry it cocked and locked.
My point of all this is to remind all that putting on your carry weapon is like any other part of getting dressed to go out. Make sure it is secured, and that your belt is where it is supposed to be and is tight. I would also like to give a shout out to Sig Sauer for building a high quality weapon that does as advertised. A lesser quality gun probably would have discharged.
