I second the leave it in the holster comment when I was working armed security the only point of concern of an ND I had was holstering or unholstering my weapon, so I did it only as many times as I had to.
While that was a professional situation that didn't require concealed carry I've personally been hit by stupidity amd have had an ND, at 16 I sent a 22lr thru my finger and blew out the joint, while in the process of checking the chamber to verify clear on a stoeger luger toggle top my finger slipped off the side of the frame and lightly hit the trigger, the firearm was pointed down and away from all parties in the room but the hand that was reaching up to cycle the action was flagged and well it was a painful lesson but one I will never forget.
