I had a Sig 226 Navy for years. When you rack the slide, a round is loaded, the pistol is cocked, hammer back. You press the decocker, the hammer goes down, now you are ready to go D/A. No problem!
I've only had one pistol with a decocker. It always made me nervous dropping the hammer with a loaded chamber. Sure, any part of any pistol can fail, but a failure of the decocking mechanism always entered my mind when decoocking. Just me I guess, but I didn't like doing it.
