It is NOT safe to carry a 1911 with the hammer down a loaded chamber.That is the reason John Browing designed the half cocked mode in the 1911. That is how I carry.

That is how I carry. That's nice. It's still a poor practice. Besides, thumbing the safety on a cocked-and-locked 1911 is smoother than cocking the hammer anyway. So why carry it unsafely?
