...everyone should know the method...and be able to rack one in quickly or even the down-the-pants method...in case their other hand/arm are damaged/in use...but the chances of using the method successfully about match the chances that you'll need to use it...
...to carry a weapon for defense that's unsafe to carry fully loaded isn't wise in the first place...no offense intended to an old cowboy who carries Daddy's Single Action Army...or those who carry a 70s Model Colt 1911...which I carried for years down on a live round when I was a youngster...there are safer alternatives these days...and why cheat yourself out of one more round when the saggydrawers gang comes 'round to call???
