I carry "condition 2" most all of the time. I personally haven't had a need for "condition 1" unless I was hog hunting or responding to a bump in the night to appease the wife or a neighbor. As I'm sure many of you do- I seem to be able to cock it from "condition 2" pretty fast as I reach down to unholster the firearm- just cocking it with my thumb as I roll/pull it out of the holster.
I don't carry a 1911 too much for SD. I don't really like SA for CC. Plus I have both experienced and heard at the range "Oops my 1911 doesn't like this ammo". For SD carry I like to use handguns that love ANY ammo! Like a fat kid loves cake! Not bashing the 1911's I love them.
