“I only carry DAO pistols with long, heavy trigger pulls. No safeties and round in the chamber. “
All my and my wife’s carry/house defense guns are DA/SA with hammer and one in chamber, pistols and revolvers.
Not saying that is the best rule but it is what we use for consistency so my wife knows that whatever she picks up will work in a similar fashion.

That’s the best way to do it. Find what works for you and stay consistent. I hate it when someone says that there is only way to carry. Just yesterday, some guy was bragging about how he’ll only carry a 1911 cocked and locked. I said, “OK, let’s see it.” He didn’t have it. He never has it. But I did have my Sig P250 snugly tucked away in my Urban Carry G2 holster. His alleged method of carry was better than mine in every way, except that he didn’t have it. That’s the big thing. It’s really the only thing.
