Trolling or what?
Carry one in the chamber? And how do you do it safely?
This is not a "round in the chamber carry re-hash" This is about 1911s with the hammer cocked with a round in the chamber.
I'm very familiar with all the safety and operating aspects of the Govt model model 1911. I carried one in Viet Nam. I own an M1911A1.
Even considering the grip and thumb safety, I am very concerned about carrying mine loaded, round in the chamber, hammer cocked. It seems the thumb safety could be easily bumped off (since it clicks down), and my trigger is very sensitive even tho covered in my pancake holster. And of course, trying to half-cock or let down the hammer is an ND waiting to happen. Needless to say, I currently choose not to carry it in this condition.
So, I'm curious, if you do carry your 1911 for self-defense, how do you do it, and how have you overcome these concerns?
If you are nervous about Cocked and locked carry, carry without a round in the chamber and see if hammer falls, under Cocked and locked conditions

Reckon not. So...was he trolling or what?
Nah, glocks are junk.1911s are inherently unsafe.
ETA: that's why I carry a Glock.
I've been told that shooting a Glock gives one warm fuzzy feeling that all is right in the world........that Glock polymer exudes inner peace and tranquility......
"F" that.........
Walk around with it empty in the holster see if it goes off.
My trigger is less than 2.5lbs still no known problems
It does not matter if it is a Glock, 1911, or a what; just be sure the gun is functioning properly. You have a gun that does what it is supposed to do, you should be fine. Not counting Murphy's Law.
Condition one or not at all.......

Yes and just how did that happen sherlock??? Well it didn't go off by itself. My finger was on the trigger. Or do you remember that part. While you are trying to shame someone.
Oh ps..
Since then guess what nary a discharge since then!!!!
Things that make you go hmmmmmmm
Didnt you kill a mirror in your house with an ND? Lol
