I have a Serpa that was given to me several years ago. It is for my Berretta 92. The 92 has a heavy long first trigger. along with a manual safety. I don't carry with it but have practiced a draw and dry fire quire a bit. my trigger finger on the draw never comes close to the trigger but comes to rest on the take down pin, there is a groove on the holster that guides it there.The Annoyed Man wrote: ↑Wed Dec 04, 2019 9:41 amGlock Leg has happened with other holsters too. But in the case of the Serpa, it happens with 1911s too (warning.....F-Bomb and SoB after he shoots himself):

He shows two holsters.... the Safariland "thumb drive" holster that he’d been using earlier in the day with a Glock, and the Serpa he was using with his 1911 when he shot himself.
He blames himself, not the holster. But I’d contend that some equipment creates the environment for higher risk than others. I like the Safariland thumb release system. You couldn’t pay me to use a Serpa, regardless of what gun I was using.
My point was that with the lighter action triggers of a Glock, and no mechanical safety makes for a dangerous combination with something like a Serpa.
Maybe someday If I decide to actually carry my 92 I might actually buy another holster for it, as it is we all manage our own risks, such as light triggers, no manual safety or a holster with little retention.
