The SIG Sauer line of pistols, such as the SIG P226, frequently feature decocking levers. The earliest use of a single-action decocker was the Vis wz. 35 "Radom" redesign in 1932 to enable horsemen to safely holster their firearm with one hand.

The P9S trigger operates as a traditional double action.

A further function of the decocking lever is to release the slide stop.
