SIG for sure has a problem with one or two of their handguns but I'm curious to know what gun this guy had.

This highlights the danger of carrying, the importance of having a quality holster with good retention, and the necessity of being properly trained in the carry and use of firearms.

I'm glad it doesn't highlight the danger of guns! That was close!

Maybe go back and actually read what I wrote? It's literally the first part of the sentence.
