Re: Holstered pistol discharge on video
Honestly, in my true deepest mindset with complete sincerity I have to state that I feel completely in control and safe carrying and holstering my Glock with one up. And I always carry and always carry one up and handle my SD pistol a lot.
Note: I am not against it, but for myself, the std factory trigger setup stays put for my SD gun. And that has nothing to do with it being striker fired or not. I also don't fiddle with cars, fishing reels, rifles etc.

Re: Holstered pistol discharge on video
I never once thought about my Glock not being safe when one up. I do know that my FA is live since it is one up so I do take extra care. The way a Glock works is one of the main reasons I bought one for EDC.
However any FA with a round in the chamber is live so which means you need to be careful ALWAYS. Having a manual safety should not make the person handling the FA less careful or make you believe "my FA is safe to carry one up because I have a manual safety"
The way the person handles a FA is what makes it safe. Focus when holstering with any FA not just a Glock

Re: Holstered pistol discharge on video
Stop
Look at your firearms trigger area
Look into your holster to make sure its clear
Holster tilting away from your body if possible
Watch the trigger as far as you can in, feel for resistance
Notice it doesn't change based on firearm type or holster position? I even holster my cleared and checked sport pistols like this

Re: Holstered pistol discharge on video
If carrying in the AIWB position, the safest way to holster a pistol (ANY pistol) would likely be to remove the (sturdy) holster, insert pistol while watching it and pointing in a safe direction, then re-insert the holster. Not much chance for any mishap there.
