In my case that’s quite accurate, at least indirectly. If I shell out the massive cash for another 1911 my wife will take my head clean off…

Well, at least safeties are always fumble-proof and no one here would ever run from an attacker because he will always be faster!
Sorry but there is a major difference between occasionally being around children, and having children constantly about you and your items, including when you least expect it. I’ve had children pull things out of my pockets. Heck I’ve had a wiener dog start rooting in a pocket after some imaginary tidbit. If this is their concern then its better for them to be safe than sorry, as the odds of an accident are higher than the odds of needing that pistol in the first place.
If a mugger already has the drop on you then its best not to play Doc Holliday with them whether or not you’re in condition 1, 2, or 3.
All important, but none of that is relevant to the topic at hand.
A child capable of doing this, should be taught not to.
Yes because children always do what they are told.
I imagine (as I am not the person worried about the kids) the poster is not only worried about the pistol being pulled out, but also the trigger being jostled or squeezed sufficiently for it to go off. Odds are low, but in that poster's eyes not low enough to warrant the risk.
Somewhere out there floating around the internet is a horrifying video of a store getting held up by a group of thugs. I think it's a jewelry store.
As the man working behind the counter fumbles with raking the slide on his semi auto, the thugs proceed to fill his body with bullets. I can't imagine the store clerk survived, but I'm not sure.

Your absolutely right.You know guys we can take it down a notch and discuss it in civilized fashion...
I'm not sure you need to. I was just answering your question.AH.74 -
Well then I'm not sure I understand your point.
Crow Hunter - You are so out of place on the child thing I will not bother quoting all of your uninformed assumptions about children. Bottom line is you have no clue what your talking about. Your best bet is to just focus on another point altogether.
3] I have multiple classes for licensing of various types, Suarez International intro to defensive pistol and defensive pistol 2, NRA approved local defensive shotgun, Plus I am a member of IDPA, USPSA and run 2 gun comps. I get 12-18 hours a month just running action sports. What about you?

See my profile.iamdb said:...What about you?...
If you think that leaves me at a disadvantage, you are gravely mistaken.
Another reading comp major I fail to see how you mistake my attitude of "negligible difference" with considering it superior. I didn't come here to go back and forth with you. You obviously are not going to agree with me. As far as I'm concerned, good.Crowhunter- I am unable to comprehend why you would consider it superior to chamber loaded carry.
