10. I hope he didn't have a Serpa holster that was on recall list

from a couple of years ago.

It has been determined that employing certain movements when attempting to place the Smith and Wesson M&P Pistol (in any caliber or configuration) into these "High Wall" holsters can cause the handgun to engage that "High Wall" and unexpectedly discharge if there is a round in the chamber and the trigger is in what Smith & Wesson calls "the striker fire action mode". A discharge or "firing" of the weapon in this manner could cause property damage or personal injury or death to the user and/or others.

Things can happen with holsters that can cause an AD as well though of course the usual cause is finger inadvertently in trigger.
