OddJob, you might know about an AD that hit someone at Shooter's World about two yrs. ago. The guy was an instructor and practicing draws on the range. He didn't notice that his front sight had caught his shirt upon reholstering. When he drew the next time, the shirt yanked the gun out of his hand. He'd have been fine letting it drop to the ground, but he tried to catch it and hit the trigger. That one didn't land innocently in the floor or wall either. |
yeah i heard about it. hearing about (1) makes me shiver. hearing about stoopid glock stunts multiple times just cements the fact the average person does NOT know how to control one safely!
and thats why HK and others drop their weapons from 3 story buildings LOADED/SAFETY OFF to test how their systems work. basically that simulates a very hard parachute landing.
all my six shooter holsters have a strap across hammer. all of my semi autos are a positive CLICK TYPE or a STRAP ACROSS REAR.
you cannot spend enough on a HOLSTER!
here in az. leather will go to hell from heat/sweat/humidity/rain/dust etc.
for hunting...................a bianchi M-9 flap covered holster for my 6 shooters or my semi autos. bouncing around on a dirty bike/quad/jeep etc. i want positive weapon security!
yes i have quite the holster collection. and they aint cheap. and the ONLY time i dropped a spoon was from a leather holster(and that was literally POO-CANNED!). and it scared the living POO outta me and feeked up the finish also on the spoon, to add insult! man i was pissed. that damn holster was not even a year old and had stretched from sweat hot cold in/out etc.
screw leather!
thinking now on my holster collection NOT ONE doesnt have a strap to secure or a positive detent.
the older i get..................the more i ENJOY LIFE and suffer no FOOLS!
