Recently completed my CCW class and the instructor and I agreed 100%. Carrying a gun CCW in condition one is not a good idea. He and I agree that for a CCW gun DAO is your best bet. Consistent trigger pull is the reasoning.
Also to the 1911 folks, carrying in condition one is probably not a good thing as under a stressful situation motor skills deteriorate and the action of taking a gun from the holster AND sweeping a safety off not good. The less you need to do the better off you will be.
Reason being that I got a DAO LCP for CCW. I want to be able to pull the pistol and pull the trigger. No need to fumble mess with trying to flip a safety off.
I know I probably just started a flame war, but just wanting to get some opinions. As I said this is not just MY opinion but the opinion of a CCW instructor who is also a police officer.
