        In regards to single action semi autos, (such as my 1911) I carry one in the chamber, hammer back and on safe.  Now, it is not an old 1911 so it also features a firing pin block as well.  Some people are not comfortable with that, however, the gun will not go off unless I do the following

        1. Release the manual saftey
        2. Activate the grip saftey
        3. Pull the trigger

        Personaly inmy experience and time as a cavalry scout in the US Army, it takes way to long to rack a slide when you need to draw and use/point that pistol quickly.  Opinons and mileage for the same may vary...
