So I know there are Longmire fans and I decided to give it a go. I am enjoying it.

That said I just watched an episodes where somebody decocks a SIG with the ACTUAL DECOCKER!!! I am so used to seeing SIGs, Beretta’s etc. etc. get the old thumb on hammer / trigger pull that it was downright jarring. Smile

The only time I can remember a SIG decocker used in a movie is Rooney Mara at the end of David Fincher's Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

In the beginning of 2008's Street Kings, Keanu Reeves shoots up a Korean gangs' hideout with a Smith 4506. After the gunfight, he uses the safety to properly lower the hammer and then immediately flicks the safety back off, essentially using it as a decocker. I thought that was a cool little detail in the film.

I caught that, too, and was pleasantly surprised to see it. It was completely in character, too, given her gift for knowing all things mechanical or technological.

In Casino Royale, when Bond retrieves his P-99 from the car, he uses the decocker after racking the slide. Of course, he couldn't very well thumb-lower the hammer on a striker fired gun, but I was still surprised that he decocked.

In the Jack Ryan Amazon series when Matice gives Jack a P228 he racks one in then decocks.
