The hammer is down on the 1911 is that how you carry the antique pistol ?
50/50 bet it's never been fired ?
Just really don't get the OC thing in that situation it's more of a look at me I have a pistol.
Better than the guy carrying one of the cheap .22 Single Actions in a nylon holster covered in rust!
Smart money says that the guy in the picture doesn't know this is a cavalry draw position. Hell I didn't know this was called a cavalry draw. Probably watched too many westerns, or bought the wrong size Uncle Mike's and that's the only way he can get it to fit.
Unfortunately trying to discuss benefits of different positioning with people like this is often met with anecdotal evidence and is taken as an affront to their masculinity.

If you are in an out of a car constantly, butt forward avoids digging the seat, and it is definitely easier to draw while still seated. When I have a number of stops, I put the paddle holster on the left side, butt forward. With the holster on the left it is easy to grab with the right hand, even if you are wearing a jacket, plus you don't get tangled up in the seat belt. Like already mentioned, the guy might have a handicap, like maybe missing fingers on the right hand. I try to get to know the man and his reasons before assuming he is wrong.
