I agree. Whether it's a 1911 or an AR-15, keep it so only one action is needed to make it ready to shoot.
As for scaring intruders with the sound of a safety coming off, or a round being chambered, I'd rather not let them know I have a gun until I pull the trigger.
They're Chinese, but the CAS shooters seem to like them, and run 100's/1000's of rounds through them and I can't find any reports of failures.
They seem to be rough out of the box, but "tune up" well with a little polishing. I spent a couple of hours stroking the hinge and bold mating surfaces and it opens and closes like butter now.
It's got external hammers and no safety, so it's dead simple to operate - cock the hammers and pull the triggers.
took it out and shot it over the weekend. AA's werent' too bad. I'm still feeling the #4 field loads. Might need to hone the chambers. The AAs fell right out but the field loads had to be pulled out.
