BUT chances are your SIG (at least for the first shot) requires:
1. more than a half inch of trigger travel
2. more than than a little over five pounds pressure on the trigger
3. has a hammer which you can feel and see moving
4. has a hammer on which to rest your thumb when holstering and/or adjusting your SIG in the waistband.
Those four points make a big difference.
Not to argue but...
1. If you're pulling the trigger it's going to fire, regardless of how much travel there is. The amount of trigger travel is hardly a safety mechanism. Nor should you treat it as such, someone who has the mentality that "I can pull this trigger this far and not have it fire," is setting himself or herself up for disaster. Where is your trigger finger? you should know at all times, it definately shouldn't be in the guard unless you're going to shoot.
2. Five pounds really isn't that much more than 3.5 or whatever it is for glocks now. If you can produce 3.5 lbs, 5 lbs isn't much more. If you pull the trigger it will fire, how much pressure it takes really isn't a consideration, if you're safe then you're safe regardless if a trigger has a 2 lbs trigger or 50 lbs trigger. If this was really an argument then we would expect every carry weapon or any weapon for that matter to have 100 lbs trigger to ensure that they'd only go off when someone was in the mist of an adrenaline rush, and even then it would be ineffective.
3. If you're pulling the trigger it's going to fire, the fact that one pistol has a hammer versus another that does not mean it's another safety mechanism. Yes you can see it, yes you probably can even feel it (ouch) but I can't remember the last time I went shooting and I openly looked for the hammer to come back. I might be different of course.
4. My finger nor should anyone else's finger be in the trigger guard while holstering. Guns fire when there's ammo and the trigger is pulled, that's it. If someone manages to shoot themselves holstering because they've got their finger where it doesn't belong it's hardly the weapon's fault. Even while adjusting my iwb I know my sig isn't going to go off, because my iwb covers the entire trigger guard and trigger and I know where my finger is. Now do I put my thumb on the hammer while holstering? I just started doing so because it's not a bad idea. But does that mean I was unsafe holstering before?
once again, it's a gun, a tool, it will fire if the trigger is pulled, it is not it's responsibility to make sure that does not happen, it is yours.
likewise, it's a hammer, a tool, it won't strike a nail without you initiating the motion, if you choose to initiate the motion while sensative parts of your body are in the way, it's hardly the tool's fault.
Those four points make no difference. If you're attentive and safe handling one gun you should be safe and attentive handling others.
