Thanks for the suggestion.

I have three of them (J frame, N frame, M&P) and the guns virtually disappear when you tuck your shirt over the holster.

To draw, just yank the shirt out with off hand and draw.

Ambi safetys on 1911s are just another piece of "tactical" crap. They get bumped off all too easily. Before they appeared, the lefties disengaged the safety with their trigger fingers and did very well. I've removed mine and tossed them.

As mentioned before, it is best having the trigger covered. Though I am not a fan of thumb break holsters, I personally feel more comfortable with them on a condition 1 1911.

Both are Andrews Custom Leather pancake style holsters.

The proper question is...
Does carrying a cocked and loaded revolver make you similarly uncomfortable?
Since glocks are a lot more like a SAO pistol than a DAO.

wyatt earp, to answer your question....no, I'm not at all uncomfortable carrying revolvers concealed. Usually have a Ruger Speed Six tucked in or a SW m37 in the pants pocket.

This guy

considered an exposed trigger guard a mandatory feature of duty holsters.

There was an eye-opening thread a while back about Jordan's career and how much his ideas about holsters were influenced by time his actual field time vs. his exhibition shooting. Several posters bought into his ideas at the time and ended up dropping guns during real-world law-enforcement work.

Is that an IWB rig for the cigars?

I strongly disagree with that statement.

Striker over 3/4 cocked, no hammer... 1 quick pull and BANG!

Don't forget the trigger safety, the striker disconnect, and the drop safety.

I'll take a Glock over a 1911 any day.

Well... with the only "safety" being on the trigger... it kind of renders the safety to be a moot point.
Personally grip safety+ manual safety+pulling trigger trumps trigger safety... if you are looking for the safer gun.
You can have a 1911 with the firing pin disconnect, and for a 1911 to be sold in Ca it has to pass their drop test.
A 1911 is not going to go off if you are standing there and drop it on the floor.
