Has anyone thought of cocked and un-locked carry for a 1911 or HiPower? It seems clearly safe with the 1911, because of the grip safety, and I keep on reading that it was designed to be carried unlocked -- or at least was designed to be safe to do so. So if you have, say, a 5lb trigger, do you see any reason why it is bad to carry (in a good holster) unlocked?
I will say I once asked Jeff Cooper if he thought it was a bad idea for the 1911. He said "It is alright with me." I am not sure if he would also say that about the HiPower.
