I've had it happen on mine with a left-side-only safety. I'm not sure how it happens; maybe something's getting caught between pistol and holster, maybe I'm just moving in a way that causes the safety to rub against the holster tab. Even so, I don't find myself excessively worried, for two reasons: first, the grip safety, and more importantly, the trigger is still covered. Think about all of the modern pistols whose only safety devices are in the trigger; for that matter, think of DA revolvers who lack any sort of mechanical safety.

Protect the trigger and the gun won't go off absent a mechanical failure.
