Any one CC with empty chamber?

[outrider58]

I thought you had a Wilson grip module and carried in a Tenicor holster. Or was that last month?

I just have a stock P365 with no manual safety. I did install an extended mag release, reversed to work with my finger instead of my thumb.

It lives quietly in a Bravo Torsion holster which clips on my Nexbelt at about 12:45 -1:00. Holster and gun go on and off the belt as a unit, and are put away at home as a unit with no routine unloading.

I sometimes do a couple of presentations before going out, mainly to check the clearance of my cover garment. Thus I do occasionally reholster "hot". This just calls for alertness and a good backward lean as I push the bottom of the holster away from my body with my left hand. Thus the muzzle never points at my body as I reholster, but at the floor well in front of my feet.

But once the pistol is in the holster, it simply cannot "go off.

The holster itself is a better "safety" then any mechanical switch.

Definitely.

I think someone upstream said they use that method for under trained so they don't get anyone kilt? Seems like a good way to get yourself kilt.

He said he painted the clip on that one to match his tan belt.

^^^^^OK! NOW this thread is getting interesting!! ^^^^^

I carried without one in the chamber when I first started to get comfortable with things. I now carry with one in the chamber.

Ditto. Someone upthread mentioned carrying on a chambered dummy round for practice. If you're practicing carrying in your home, that seems like a reasonable idea.

An alligator belt might require a bit more artistry...

I use the Tenicor, but it isn’t tuckable. Most of the time I need a tuckable. The Wilson irritates my muffin top.

Jame Gumb, and I, thought you were talking about something else

Wear a Great Kilt, lots of good options there. Or purse pistol in the sporran.

Also, "Yes, I do wear something under my kilt."

Seems like a bad idea to me. Especially if you get a home invasion.

Phlster Enigma.

Almost never a scenario where you can’t take your holster off your body to re-holster your carry gun. I do the same as you, and treat the pistol/holster as a single unit.

This is the way. Far less gun handling, much safer.

I see I'm in good company.

I think a lot of folks don’t understand that not all safeties need a thumb switch. Even a 1911 has a grip safety, so 2 safeties. Glock advertises 3 safeties: Trigger safety, firing pin safety, drop safety.

when I bought my P365, there isn’t a trigger safety, so I bought the model with the thumb safety. That is now in my parts bin.

As mentioned before, in a decent holster, nothing short of a freak accident is going to cause that firearm to discharge. There is no danger of discharge when drawing. The only other factor is your finger, and if you analyze your draw, it’s highly unlikely that you will get your finger on the trigger while the muzzle is pointed at you. You will be drawing with momentum toward your target.

This probably isn't an original thought but it might help some to think of a good holster as basically another safety. If my 365x with no thumb safety in a Tenicor Certum 3 somehow goes off, well, I should have just stayed in bed that day...

Same for a J Frame in a leather pocket holster. If that 9+ pound trigger gets inadvertently pulled while in my pocket, something has gone impossibly wrong.

Are the cables shown attached to the pistol in the video for training only?

We used lanyards on everything. If you drop something on the open ocean, its gone if not tied in. One night we were training VBSS off the coast of San Diego and the driver flipped a RIB. Because everything on the boat was tied in with a lanyard or carabiner, we didn't lose so much as a pocket knife. The boat was never the same afterwards and watching a 600ft ship glide by in arms reach was rather unsettling but nobody was hurt and nothing was lost. Lanyards are good.

A lot of military use lanyards.

You see, I learned something new today.
