A SmartCarry pretty much points the muzzle of your carry gun at your opposite-leg femoral artery. Carrying on the hip at three-o'clock potentially endangers only one small artery, if that.

:tiphat: Point well taken. Excellent reference. I will agree that if some catastrophic happened, I would prefer it be while wearing a regular IWB or OWB rig. While I do not wear it often, I have never felt uncomfortable (safety-wise) with the Smart Carry on... maybe I should have.

No way ever am I sticking a loaded gun down the front of my pants.
I have a Smart Carry, which I rarely use but is nice to have if dress requires deep concealment. It sits on top of other critical "equipment" down there, so the muzzle at least isn't pointing at you -- any more than IWB or OWB carry might have the muzzle directed at your leg at a given point in your gait.
