IIRC, the guy in the tale of woe never said what brand his was, or if it even had a brand name. I think he may have picked it up on sale at a gun show.
My intent in bringing up the story wasn't to run down the SC, as it seems to have a fairly long history of safe usage. It was more of a caution to anyone considering an off-brand, or making one of their own.

Re: Is the Smartcarry, smart?
I read a story (online, so take that part into consideration) of a feller who ran the business end of a formerly live round down his leg while carrying in an off-brand SmartCarry styled holster. IIRC, he either leaned over or squatted just right and the material bunched up in the trigger guard just right (just wrong?) leading to some unintended body piercing.
I just tried to find it...but the site (negligentdischarge.com --WARNING: Potentially graphic images) seems to be running too slowly to cooperate. Some interesting reading on the forum over there.
Just something to think about. I have no actual personal experience with the product.
