Arguing that the less trained are not more likely to have holstering, or drawing negligent discharges than professionals, is like making the argument that because one person dies wearing a seat belt (and thousands others are saved by them) makes not wearing one sensible.
One up the spout, hammer cocked and safety on. That's for my little Sig P938, a micro 1911 that I use for pocket carry. Same for the Sig P365, except no hammer, I still use a safety, because every semi auto I have has a safety and I am used to them.One in the chamber or not?
S&W 3913 ... is my main ... Also use a colt 1903 Hammer-less !A decocked da/sa would be a condition 2 ( like my lcr). Nice. I carried an sp2022 sig for a while. What are you carrying,
More like for crossing State lines where the gun has to be unloaded and stored. If this is something you have to do with any regularity this simplifies things greatly.Heck, if you want to do that just buy a pistol with a magazine disconnect.
Glad you mentioned the 1903 hammerless.S&W 3913 ... is my main ... Also use a colt 1903 Hammer-less !
I just drop my fully loaded Sig in the cup holder when I'm in the car.I can drop the mag, drop unloaded gun in the portable safe and the mag in a console or glove compartment while driving.

About 12 years ago I made some trips to Michigan from Georgia to pick up boats for my brother-in-law. I checked the gun laws of the states I drove through. Ohio didn't recognize Georgia so I did unload & lock down my sidearm when I drove through there. Before the next trip I made I figured out Indiana did recognize Georgia & it was less than a half hour difference in time to go that way. I went through Indiana the next trip.America I hear it's nice.
I like it.America I hear it's nice.
You know, you can still purchase a brand new 1903 from Colt. I've never seen them advertised, but when I visited the Colt plant I saw one in the Custom Shop and the person who was showing me around told me that yes, they are still available. Colt subcontracts with an outside machine shop for the parts that make up a 1903 and they fit them together in the Custom Shop.Glad you mentioned the 1903 hammerless.
My late uncle (Tom) gave me his 1903 just before he died (2012). His gun was manufactured in 1923, the same year Tom was born. Tom's father, a drag line operator constructing dams in Louisiana, bought the 1903 for personal protection on the job. Tom's father gave the 1903 to Tom in 1940 when Tom enlisted in the Navy.
Tom kept the gun, rarely firing it, until he gave it to me. I never fired it. Instead, I gave it to my son, a career Army Blackhawk pilot.
Kicking and Screaming ... I may add !I'm in the DC area. 2 states and the Crapitol. At least Maryland was kinda forced back into the Union!
Beautiful ! If that were stainless I'd love it even more ... but, I have a feeling it's nickle plated ?You know, you can still purchase a brand new 1903 from Colt.

A lesson on distance and defense from the Las Cruces PD. And why your sidearm should be quickly accessible with one in the chamber and safety off. People often choose comfort with no printing, over accessibility. A carried sidearm is supposed to be comforting, not necessarily comfortable.
