My contribution to "Never Again" is my having to remain ever vigilant when retrieving my main carry pistol from it's storage place. I keep it in a hanging holster and I'd started to develop a hurried approach when pulling it out of the holster.

I recognized this developing bad habit and ignored it. A couple of days ago, I got in such a big hurry when pulling it out of the holster, I got ever so slightly off balance. That was a wake up call. No more of that stuff!

I've gone back to very deliberately and carefully retrieving my pistol from it's storage place, making certain at all times my finger is properly indexed.

Getting in a hurry with firearms when there's no real need is foolish and dangerous.

Never again!

P.S. I don't understand why anyone would be particularly fearful/hesitant regarding a pistol that has to be triggered before being broken down?

Aren't all firearms inherently dangerous if not treated with safety foremost and don't many have their own quirky break down procedures?

Aren't we required by common sense to make completely certain we unload any firearm just prior to disassembly and cleaning anyway?

This specific bit of concern shouldn't stand in the way of buying some very fine pistols in the market place.
