Or are you guys talking about carrying it around cocked and unlocked? What am I missing here? Thanks! Regards18DAI

I stated earlier in the Thread that this gun is EXCLUSIVELY for the Range. I don't even carry yet and when I do, it'll be with a smaller 9mm. I'll decock/unload it the same way I do with every other gun: point downrange, drop mag, rack slide.

I know the rules of gun safety, but thank you for the concern.

Beyond that...
Are ya guys kidding with us here?
You cannot seriously believe this is dangerous... really?
You'd now have to decock the pistol in the same exact way you'd decock a 1911. Or any revolver or ANY semiauto ever built that has an exposed hammer and no decock lever of some sort.
A 3rd Gen with SA/DA operation and no decocker is not at all an "unsafe" handgun unless/until it is in the hands of a fool.
Anybody care to have an adult discussion on how some ADDED safety features incidentally promote POOR gun handling?

Thanks.
