I wear Columbia hiking shorts all the time in the summer (cant stand long shorts) anyways, I just discovered that the small "coin" pocket on the upper right side fits my Sig P238 perfectly like it was made for it. I dont have a holster for it yet so I've been carrying it with the muzzle down, hammer down and 1 in the chamber.

How safe is carrying that way?

P.s. Did I tell you guys that the little pistol disappears in these shorts, its amazes me.

I don't think this will turn out the way you've planned...

well if you frequently walk into hard metal objects or get attacked by a guy with hammer before you can draw, you'll shoot your dick off.  Happy carrying.

You do know it won't shoot with the hammer down right?

You will be fending off ghey overatures so frequently that your situational awareness will diminish to the point where you become easy prey.

Ditch the shorts, B*&^%!

Yes, I know!

I was thinking of cocking the hammer while I draw.

Perfectly safe.   Just make sure you keep your finger on the trigger so it can be constantly monitored.

While you draw?  Are you going to practice that at all or will this fine motor skill present itself via hopes and dreams?

Good Luck with that.  Try to it practice.  It is slower and harder than it seems.  The required fine motor skill of cocking a hammer in a shooting scenario isn't favorable to victory.  Keep the shorts and invest in some nice long polos or button ups and find a concealable OWB or IWB holster.  Keep in mind this is all being said not knowing what size caliber shape a Sig 238 is.  Practice your draw (dryfire),  Good Luck
