  • What are the safeties on this gun? It looks like there is a safety to the rear of the trigger. Is it safe to carry the gun with a round in the chamber, decocked, without any other safeties engaged?

  • Robert, there is no manual safety on this model. It has a decocker. Sigs are very safe to carry, Full mag 1 chambered. Decocked.
    .
    Sig has a 4-point Safety System
    .
    As for safeties, there is no safety switch located on the gun itself. Instead, there are 4 different internal mechanisms, which guarantee the safety of the pistol. SIG calls this its 4-point safety system. The safeties are:
    .
    the de-cocker, which allows the shooter to lower the hammer safely, while there is a round in the chamber. When the de-cocking occurs, the hammer is lowered but it still stays away from the firing pin.
    the safety notch, which is another way of keeping the hammer apart from the firing pin.
    the firing pin has its own safety, which makes sure that the pin will not move forward. That is, until the trigger is pulled, at which time the safety is removed and the pin is pushed forward to meet the cartridge’s primer. This third safety is also the gun’s drop safety. Even when dropped from a reasonable height, with a round in the chamber, the gun will not fire.
    the slide has a notch, which separates the firing pin from the cartridge. Unlike the aforementioned firing pin safety, this one is there to make sure that the gun doesn’t accidentally discharge a round while it is cycling. This is called the “trigger bar disconnector”.
    .
    Stay safe & have a great day!

  • no manual safety it has a decocker and should be carried in the hammer down position your safety is that with the hammer down the 1st trigger pull is long and heavy (double action) the next pulls are short and light (Single action)
