techguySig P320 with manual safety questions.
Any of you folks carry a Sig P320 with a manual safety? What are your thoughts on manipulating the safety? Are you finding it difficult because it’s too small or the location? Thanks.

sig2392I am behind enemy lines half the time.
They require a safety.
The gun is safe for carrying without one.
Most Sigs do not have a safety except in Blue nanny states.
I have never used it while carrying them.
I have a p320 and various P365s all with safeties I never use except for loaded transport like in my range bag.
YMMV.

YooperSigsFrom time to time, I EDC a 320 Compact .45 with a manual safety. For me, it carries very much like a Colt Commander in size and weight. The safety is easily operated and placed properly for me to use it in the same way I use it with a 1911.
Bonus: The slide can operate with the safety on, making loading or unloading the gun just that much safer.

I carry a m18. It took me less than a month of draw from conceal practice to automatically drop the safety during my draw. I don't remember manipulating the safety at all anymore as it is part of the motion. I've had the gun since late October and haven't forgot to drop the safety a single time in any training classes.

I live in a blue nanny state. I have five different models of SIGs, and none of them have a safety except the P238, which is SAO and has a safety in every state where it is sold.
I think some nanny states are more nanny than others.
