Ah ok, with the safety covered it should be all good. Don't think the "click" would help too much otherwise.wgoforth wrote: Even the safety is covered in a Desantis pocket holster. The safety has a "click" rather than just up and down... so you know if it engages or disengages.

Re: Short review: Sig P238
I can see thinking the safety might not stay reliably engaged specifically due to pocket/purse carry, but the heavy trigger pull should suffice as backup.rusty86 wrote:wgoforth wrote:Yes, me too...funny thing is I never would have considered it had not my wife tried one and loved it... then I shot it to see, and it was like "whoa."extremist wrote:Granted, not an extensive test, but I did run some rounds through my brand new May 2011 build P238 yesterday at DPC using my 2 7 round mags (obtained from Top Gun Supply) and the standard 6 round mag:
- about 15 rounds of CCI Blazer
- about 10 rounds of S&B
- 5 Rounds of Federal Hydrashok
- 5 Rounds of Remington Personal Defense (Golden Sabre)
ALL flawless. I love this little gun.

I keep hearing folks say they would not consider a cock-n-lock for a pocket carry (I wear it OWB holster anyway)...but I can't figure that out. It is designed to be carried this way. It has a thumb safety and the hammer will not go down unless the trigger is pulled. The trigger is an 8lb trigger which is as heavy as LCP, Bodyguard, etc. Though cocked-n-locked, the trigger takes same force as other pocket carries...so why is everyone so worried about these?
I don't understand that either. Especially in a pocket holster which covers up the trigger and safety. It seems very safe to me.

Re: Short review: Sig P238
Sounds like great service and even better if it returns with an extra mag.
