Words to live by if you use this device. While I debate the whole "recommended carry method for civilian use" if you're using a holster, putting a loaded Glock in your pants without something protecting the trigger guard is a recipe for a trip to the ER.Do not carry the pistol in the ready to fire condition. This is not the recommended safe-carrying method for civilian use. To minimize risk of unintentional discharge, load live ammunition into the pistol only when you are ready to shoot.
