[QUOTE="Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow, post: 1064544, member: 7123"] Well that's true, nothing is 100% safe. But it's as safe as anything else. Would you like me to put you in touch with this gentleman, so you can ask him? He goes by 1911 Tuner on another board. And what I mean is I don't train enough WITH a 1911 (i.e. train on disengaging a manual safety while drawing - no need to, for the reasons given). I do train 'enough' with a DA/SA (CZ 75), depending upon one's definition of 'enough'. In fact, my range doesn't allow drawing from a holster, so there's a pretty good reason I don't rely upon this method of carry. If you can't train like you're gonna 'play' in the real game, then you shouldn't do it, IMO. I don't think you should mix and match pistol action types unless you're *really* well-trained on the crossover. Well I don't carry my 1911s *much*, but I love them and so when/if I do, I'm not gonna change the manual of arms that could get me killed - and why should I when it's safe to carry in this way? Anyway, back to the original topic.... [/QUOTE]
