You Tube - I lost a testicle to an accidental discharge.

Thats why, A. I will never appendix carry and, B. I prefer a gun with a heavy AF DA/SA trigger like the P2000 or a striker fired gun with a thumb safety. I love Glocks but they go in a OWB holster on my hip. I'd rather accidentally shoot my backside than my genitals, guts, or femoral artery.
the popliteal artery runs down the back of the leg and the knee, plenty of stuff to F- up on the backside too. Just don't shoot yourself lol

You can stop a popliteal bleed easy. A femoral. Only if it’s low enough to get above it and you’d have to do it REAL fast.
 
Yeah never had an issue with my M18 service pistol, works great. If you have any proof then you should take it to court or make a youtube video
This really shows your integrity. If you're looking for validation maybe you should talk to mommy... P.S. I hate to burst your bubble, but Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy don't exist either no matter how much you want them to.

Ok enjoy gooning to your 10-11 year old video of a cop shooting himself while millions carry their M17/M18 daily
 
As I’m moving forward to get my CCW this freaks me out about carrying in the appendix position.
This awful AIWB ND is certainly frightening.

I would say first remember that the appendix position has many benefits.

Go to Lucky Gunner on youtube and watch Chris Baker's excellent videos on AIWB.

You can reduce your chances for ND with AIWB to near-zero by doing the following:

-High quality gun belt and gun holster for your specific gun
-SLOW and DELIBERATE reholstering technique with hips pushed forward, LOOK the gun into the holster
-The moment anything feels slightly wrong (like unusual resistance in reholstering), STOP, unholster the pistol and set it down safely, and inspect for debris/stray shell casings/loose drawstrings from clothing in holster, trigger guard, etc.
-Reholster in dry fire with the exact same slow and deliberate technique to build good habits and reduce the chance of recklessly reholstering in live fire

Some optional things to even further reduce AIWB ND:
-Carry a DA/SA pistol and firmly place your thumb over the hammer as you reholster
-If you have a striker fired pistol, see if they make a device for your slide backplate that acts like a DA/SA hammer where you can stop the trigger from being pulled by firmly placing your thumb over the back of the slide

At the end of the day people make mistakes and machines designed by men will fail. Do what is comfortable, reassuring, and confidence-inspiring to you, whether that be AIWB or 3 o' clock or shoulder holsters or fanny pack carry.
 
Yeah I'll stop. It's just this posters lack of integrity and willful ignorance to a problem is comical. Trolls FTW
You're a fanboy - we get it. You're concern trolling over the 0.00000001% chance of getting shot by your P320. If you're that worried get a manual safety model or add a trigger safety tab. Not rocket science. Make sure to use a high quality holster and belt and check for foreign material before reholstering.

A manual safety or one of those dingus trigger from agency or grayguns wouldnt do a thing. Uncommanded discharges stemmed from the sear/striker being engaged on their own, not the trigger being engaged in any way. The issue with SIG isnt negligent discharges or accidental discharges but uncommanded discharges. A trigger safety isnt going to stop an uncommanded discharge from the sear being engaged. Are you gonna call ICE and like more than a dozen or so agencies trolls for moving away from 320s due to potential issues. That and all the class actions.

You think therefore its a fact. You think it was clothing so it must have been an ND. Ignoring all the court cases where juries ruled sig had a flawed design. Ignoring the fact the army themselves said the sig had a high risk of UDs. anyways read this: https://npr.brightspotcdn.com/86/f5/d87374f8497a81db30e2463aa80d/marine-corps-2023-02-14.pdf

Yeah I've seen that, there's so few incidents it's easy to keep track of them.
final finding: "weapon negligent discharge"

That is your opinion but it's not a fact. Good ol' Glock leg lawsuits come to mind. Lol, ban Glocks!! So many agencies abandoned Glock... guess Sig is far superior by your logic
