Would you be uncomfortable sitting across the table from someone carrying in a pocket holster?

Why or why not?
Good point.
Very good point... I think this hasn't occurred to most people because it's "out of sight, out of mind". Personally, I rarely sit with my legs pointed straight ahead, to if I had a gun in pocket holster and if it "just went off", as much as my pockets are pulled tight when I'm sitting and not holding my legs closed, the bullet would probably hit my leg which is obviously bad, but so much better than hitting someone else anywhere. In fact, assuming I don't get a permanent injury, I think having it hit my leg is the most desirable outcome of an AD/ND in a crowd because I "contain" all (hopefully) the danger, and the crowd just has to worry about the slippery spot where I was sitting.

Hmm... With that in mind, now I'm reconsidering whether I want a .380 or a 9mm for pocket carry...

Re: Extermely un-nerving encounter.....

The engineering part of me says there's nothing to worry about since there wasn't anything to pull the trigger. The paranoid part of me doesn't care what the engineering part thinks...

Also, regardless of normal or "best" practices, Berettas can be carried cocked'n'locked.
