Any other recommendations besides the Sig for black Friday?
This is something that was talked about at one of the NRA classes I took. It really comes down to your comfort level working the safety in an emergency situation. When you need to draw and use your CCW, you are likely in the most stressful and surprised situation of your life. Do you think you could reliably - pull your clothes, draw the gun, work the safety, aim and shoot?

Rule of thumb is to cut down as much as possible on the steps you would need to take in a extreme-pressure situation. As such, I have chosen to only conceal carry DAO or similar actions with no manual safety. In terms of safety, you still have the internal safeties as well as the holster acting as a guard from inadvertently touching the trigger.

I far and away prefer the feel of a SA trigger pull it is just the most comfortable and accurate for me. I have trained to be "adequate" with DAO / Striker Fire just because I feel it is the best compromise for the concealed carry situation.
