Red, I get what you mean. Each person who buys a holster for a particular gun, needs to make sure it is safe for that gun. For example, back when my department decided to allow us to carry personally owned 1911s, I purchased a Bianchi Model 5BHL high ride duty holster for my Springfield 1911. At the end of my first day carrying it on duty, I un-holstered when I got home and found the safety dis-engaged,
Further inspection showed it was safe while holstered because in addition to the grip safety, the thumb break blocked the hammer. The problem was, the safety was pushed off when the thumb break was snapped.

Long story short it took some surgery to the holster to make it safe. It was actually a very simple fix that would have been noticed had Bianchi used a real gun when fitting the holster.
