Charles, is it quarter or half cock and did your experience make it to "never again" it might be interesting.

never asked but always wondered- why was the 1911 designed with a quarter cock position for the hammer. Form follows function so it must have a functiuon. Do some people carry in this mode and if so would someone please shed some light on what the upside or downside of this condition could be functionally and from a safety perspective.
