Yeah, its definitely not the most convenient thing to have to cock the hammer every shot, but its not enough of a hinderance for me to ban it from carry duty. Weak hand if I can use two hands, but if I don't have time for that (jumped from behind, charged by a bear, whatever) I can cock the hammer with my strong hand as I'm drawing without slowing my draw.
Don't get me wrong, I much prefer a 1911 for carry, but this is my best alternative with my current choices... mostly cause I don't trust the others to do what I need them to, whenever I need them too.
