I sold all my 1911's, but I used to carry condition 1 when out and about, and condition 2 when sitting on the couch and around the house. Carrying a Glock with one in the chamber seems more dangerous than a 1911 in condition 1.

How Do You Carry A 1911

Only true way to carry a 1911...condition 1.
You left out the other 1911 carry condition options though. Why?

I didn't figure that anyone would actually carry with: hammer down on empty chamber, empty chamber/mag out, or cocked and unlocked.
If one of those floats your boat, then post a reply AND your logic/reasoning for this...
Thanx
Just like John said it should be, #1 for me when I carry a 1911.
What is your reasoning if you don't mind me asking? Seems your are comfortable to have guns not in your direct control Con1 but not the one you will actually carry?
Not trying to be an a$$. Seriously interested...
Cond 1, same with my CZ-75 and a main reason I dont own other guns because I cant carry Cond 1.
I would never feel safe lowering the hammer with a chambered round even in the safiest(sp?) of conditions.
So, I honestly ask any one that carrys cond 3(really 2) to explain why you like that?
I see only negs reason to do that but am open to ideas...

1 , cocked locked. IMHO safest way, other than unloaded and if it's not loaded I'm not carrying it. Kinda a big loud German Shepard with no teeth.
