Re: Drawing from holster disengages safety (??)

If one has to draw their weapon isn't it cool that the holster will disengage the safety for you? Now, if it doesn't do it all the time I can see a problem.

What do I know, though, I carry a Glock.

I know that the safety was engaged when I holstered it.

Could the gun be too tight against the leather?
Referring to the OP, the problem as stated was finding the safety moved off during carry.

I fail to see how. There is nothing on the outboard side to contact the safety lever.

Re: Drawing from holster disengages safety (??)

I've had thumb breaks disengage the safety. But if the flesh guard is too narrow, the edge can hook the safety and partially or completely disengage the safety.
