Reholstering in a hurry is not something a civilian is likely to need to practice. But LE often operate under different rules of engagement. As an example; a suspect is threatening an officer with a knife. The officer draws his pistol in response. Then the suspect drops the knife, clenched his fists and starts advancing toward the officer. Deadly force is likely no longer the appropriate response so the officer must reholster immediately and draw his baton, spray, ECW. In a similar scenario, the officer has his pistol out but the suspect drops the knife and runs away. The officer can give chase with pistol in hand but should probably put the gun away.
Question for those who use the SCD. Does the short trigger travel and amount the SCD sticks out allow enough "reaction time" to stop holstering if a problem arises? Does thumb pressure on the SCD otherwise prevent the trigger from being pulled by a finger or other object during reholstering?
