Thus the “”.
But with with common sense and a quality holster I am quite comfortable carrying a Glock.
I did not feel more comfortable with a 1911 cocked and locked, I had to fight the urge to keep checking the safety all day long.
I keep a 1911 in a shoulder holster cocked and locked because the strap comes between the hammer and firing pin. I feel perfectly comfortable with that arrangement.
On the hip, I don’t because, as you said, I keep checking the strap.
For hip use, I prefer the Beretta 96 in .40 because it has both a manual safety and a 12 pound DA trigger. For bear country I keep a S&W 329 44 mag on the left hip. Great revolver and same thing, 12 pound trigger.
P.S. For the same reason of trust, I always have a Ruger LCP 380 in a pocket, and none in the pipe with that one.
