I know a lot of people like a thumbstrap under the hammer of their cocked and locked 1911 or HiPower.

I am not one of those people.

I carry either model, C&L on a regular basis, and I do not use thumbstraps. There has never been an issue.

The HiPower fits in most, if not all, 1911 holsters, so it's really not hard to find a good holster for IWB or OWB.
