I actually only own 1911’s as far as handguns go, and I carry my commander size ruger all the time. I have only had one malfunction out of hundreds of rounds of all makes and types. It was with fiochi 230gr ball amo, and I had a no feed. I had complete ejection and the next round was never grabbed. I believe that to be an underpowered round issue as it has never happened before and never happened again. As for carrying, John Browning designed it to be carried cocked and locked, and I believe it is safest cocked and locked. Pulling the hammer back/ manually racking the slide to load a round have resulted in far more nd’s.
