Whereas I have no kids of my own, I see this struggle in my own extended family. My brother is a non-psychotic gun and sporting enthusiast, which his anti- wife takes to be synonymous with "psycho." He wants to take their daughters out to give them supervised instruction at arms when they are older and if they are interested. The wife is WAY down on this, seeing it as symptomatic of, well, something heinous. Nevermind she married a guy who had such instruction with guns as a kid...

As for the OP, the only 1911-type SA guns I have, I carry loaded with hammer down and safety engaged. This is possible on mine. I don't care for "cocked and locked."
