Exactly how do you normally hold a gun?? What do you pull the trigger with if you're using all 4 fingers to grip it? Why would you ever hold it loosely ?
If someone else asks the same question, I'll gladly answer it.

I see no need for an ambi safety -- you can always disengage a regular safety with either hand.First, do you have a single sided or ambi safety on your carry piece? I would like to hear the pros and cons that folks have run into with either style.
I use a tuckable IWB of my own design. Basically, my holster has high leather that prevents the gun from touching my skin when I wear IWB.Second, what holster rig are you using with your 1911?
I know the issues involved, since I have tried it. I cannot, in good conscience, recommend it as a standard way of fighting when it can be avoided.
The problem is the delay and insecurity of the grip while I am doing it. It is physically impossible to be as fast as when I am using a thumb to move the lever while my finger is moving toward the trigger.
