Maybe it's paranoid, but I don't want to take the chance that I might have already been winged when I present my weapon. I can rack it with one hand if I have to, but it takes me more than a second. Most gunfights are over in 3 seconds, I'm not willing to give the BG that much of an edge.

Then carry a ruger or a taurus doulbe action revolver with transfer bar safety . Ready to fire at ANY time.

You may have misunderstood my post.

My summertime carry is a new Taurus Ultralight 38sp Police Model 85 w/concealed hammer. Which of course has a transfer bar and is ready to fire at any time.

My cooler weather carry is a Glock 23 with a drop safety. It has one in the pipe and is ready to fire at any time. (currently living in the top drawer of my dresser, two steps from my bed (BTW, no kids))

Loaded, cocked, Glocks have been tumbled in cement mixers without going off. Yes, the Glock has a somewhat lighter pull than the Taurus, ~12 vs. ~6. The glock does have the safety switch on its trigger to help prevent discharges from 'snagged' triggers.

I have never placed my finger on the trigger without the intention of immediately squeezing it. I have never had a NG.

But, I do not stick it in my waistband, I don't carry in a 'soft' holster, and it stays in a rigid kydex holster that covers the trigger guard.
