When you draw your 1911 A1 how long does it take to rack the slide then aim?

How long does it take to take the thumb safety off?

How long does it take to move it from half cock to full cock?

I sure prefer mine to a Glock.

The answer is to put a “New York” 5.5 lb pull trigger on the Glock. (NOT.)

If you carry chamber empty, then it doesn’t matter if it’s a 1911 or a Glock. If you carry cocked and locked, then the 1911’s thumb and grip safties are better than the Glock’s ‘Safe Action’ trigger, but then you have to remove the thumb safety on the 1911.

All you have to remember in the Glock is to pull the trigger very firmly, because your Department thinks you’re as dumb and the guy in the video.
