He did not want to take the chance of missing the safety in an emergency. It did not bother me he was always very mindful of where his muzzle was pointed, his grip safety was functional, and his trigger pull was not excessively light. One of my co-workers (big-city LEO) carried his 1911 in "condition zero" all the time. Had someone do extremely negligent smith work to their gun.

I'm a firm believe that accounts of 1911s unless we pull the trigge!r- assuming that the gun is properly maintainedĪnd is in good working order.
Remember that at the end of the day, the gun is not going to go off and IMO that's far worse than the other problem!Īnything with an intact sear that's set pretty conservatively (eg, triggerīreaks at 4-6 lbs ) with a working mag safety is also good. To function check those parts, too, because I've seen 1911s that had improperlyįitted safeties where sometimes the safety would be essentially You want it set up so that it provides some resistance,īut not too much, and that the plunger etc is stable. The effort to engage/disengageĬan be adjusted. I also did not find a disadvantage to the standard safety being difficult to disable or enable.Īs others mentioned, it's valueable to have a -GOOD- smith check out I even carried it in aĬheap uncle mikes holster, and the safety stayed on the whole I can just draw and pull the trigger with, eg, Glock, Sig, HK, etc.) I carriedĪ Colt Officer's model with the standard safety over the course of a summerĪnd had no trouble with the safety disengaging.
Although I'm not normally a 1911 guy with regards to CCW (I prefer guns
