I have a Ruger 1911 45 Commander that has an issue with the safety toggle. I carry it most often in a leather holster cocked and locked with leather snap retention. On several occasions upon removing from the holster I have found the safety has switched down to the fire position. I also have two other leather holsters and I get the same result. The Rugers have extended safeties which apparently makes it rather easy to be moved to fire position as the gun is pulled up and out. I also have a Remington Rand, Springfield GI, and a Colt Series 70 MK4 that have shorter safety toggles and always come out of the holster still cocked and locked. Has anyone else noticed this with 1911s with extended safeties? I am thinking about dremeling it back down to original length.
