[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 4189421, member: 13337"] I've already answered your question: "I can't and could never convince myself,,, That a cocked hammer over a chambered round is safe." Other than arguing semantics over specific words,,, That statement really explains my [I]why[/I]. In my holster attached to my bed rail,,, Is a CZ-75B with safety on and a chambered round under a de-cocked hammer. In my satchel bag,,, Is a Beretta 81 with safety on and a chambered round under a de-cocked hammer. In my hip holster,,, Is a Bersa Thunder 380 with safety on and a chambered round under a de-cocked hammer. Like I said in my original post,,, I [I]prefer[/I] DA/SA pistols with exposed hammer. I could carry with the safety off and just rely on the long first DA pull,,, But I have always practiced my draw to include manually thumbing the safety off. I also don't necessarily subscribe to the idea that,,, Just because something has been done for 100 years makes it safe. Aarond . [/QUOTE]
