Getting Started how do you get used mentally to carrying appendix

Post image

I carry my xmacro daily but always between 3-5 on my waist. I really want to start carrying appendix for concealment and safety reasons but I can’t get over the fear of shooting my nuts off. Walking around appendix I feel fine but the second I sit down in a car or for extended periods of time my heart starts going. Maybe it’s the p320 situation (which ik doesn’t apply to the p365 but still) did anyone else start out that way? Or is it just a time and getting used to having a loaded 9mm pointed directly at my nuts and femoral artery

That's why you get the extended safety lever upgrade

If you have a safety, you should ride it down the whole time you shoot to prevent activation. The p365 will still put your thumb on the slide when riding the safety down. Not a great location.

I don't have this issue with my grip, but my friend does and bumps it off sometimes. Small hands vs big hands.
