I always do. I have had unexpected discharge from guns I was holding a couple of times in my life. Not fun.

Same here. I had a wartime P38 discharge when I used the de-cocking/safety lever. Fired a round into the inner door panel of my Chevy station wagon. Interestingly, the 9mm bullet did not penetrate the outer door skin. It hit a window riser arm and left a dent, but did not impede function of the window riser. I took the door apart when I junked the car, but couldn't find the bullet...
I no longer trust slide safeties or de-cocking levers on any pistol.
