Oh, no; a heretic who does not worship at the altar of the beaver-tail grip safety!

So you could safely uncock your 1911 with one hand, while at full gallop with the reins in the other hand!
Thats another thing Browning probably figured out.

I sense a tone of someone having the case of a need to know what my credentials are before I can speak about anything further on this board. BTW winning an argument on internet is like winning the special Olympics, even if you wing your still retarded, Condition 1 is the fastest way to deploy a pistol for the purpose of combat.
To clarify the guy who was "jacking rounds all over the range." When he was in the army he was trained on condition 2. So when he got to the training he drew his weapon and forgot it was on half cock and tried to pull the trigger and no bang (this was at the beginning of the string of fire he decided to shoot 5 times). So I told him to rack the slide henceforth jacking rounds all over the range because he had never been put under pressure and his old training took over. When I showed him the "NEW" way to do it he realized it was faster and he was not dumping ammo on the ground.
It's the internet; nobody really cares about anything except whether what you have to say is sensible and how much it contributes to the topic being discussed.PaleHorse said:I have no need to validate who and what I am to keyboard Jockeys.
When people are referring to condition two with the 1911, they are talking about the half cock position with a 1911 hammer.
I enjoyed reading your posts. The replies to your excellent posts have caused me to leave the site. For me it's not worth the bovine fecal matter this moderator shovels around. Good luck to you and God bless.The title of the thread is "1911 Half Cock Question."
During my armorer training in the Army Condition 2 was on the half cock position.
MEUSOC does carry in condition 1.

In fact, since the surfaces of the sear and the 1/2 position don't match up, you'll likely be LESS SAFE because surface cracks on the sear could happen faster when parked in an uneven location, and when the sear fails the possibility of an AD goes up, not down.
For me it's not worth the bovine fecal matter this moderator shovels around.
I forgot - what was the question?
Now about the idea that constant carring of the 1911 on half cock could cause damage to the sear I could see that to some degree...
For me it's not worth the bovine fecal matter this moderator shovels around.
So assuming you're comfortable with going all the way to c0 to do it, there's absolutely no reason mechanically or physically not to carry half cocked, or am I missing something?
