The other question on this thread, whether you carry with safety on or off, is misleading. I carry safety off because I carry a decocked TDA, so the only difference between that and a cocked unsafetied pistol is I'm pulling a 10-lb trigger. And of course, safeties are the minority; most hammerless weapons and virtually all revolvers have no manual safety, only passive safeties like pin blocks, trigger latches and DA trigger weights.
So, without getting too specific aboutexactly whatyou carry, here are some more options about how you carry that also explain the ramifications. "I have the safety off becauseit's adecocked TDA" imples a diffferent state of readiness than "I have the safety off on a cocked 1911".
