Most modern firearms can be carried cocked and loaded.  With pistols like the
Glock and M&P, they have the two piece trigger that acts like a safety until
it is properly pulled.  When seconds count, cycling a slide will take too long
..

Regardless of double action or single action, a hammer can be pulled back as
the pistol is removed from the holster.  Same applies with the safety.
