How many conceal carry with their safety on and how many carry with their safety off.
-
In case of a 1911 or guns with thumbsafety, safety is always on until drawn. In a Glock and XD (amongst others) the safety is deactivated when pulling the trigger.
-
Safety on unless I'm carrying a revolver
-
Locked, cocked, and one in the pipe.
Oh, and safety ON.
-
.45, as suggested, loaded and on
PPKS, is double action, so usually off
no safety on revolver
But as we teach as instructors, the safety is a mechanical device that can and will fail, don't rely on it.
-
Carry my 9mm with 17 hollow points in mag, 1 in chamber, safety on all the time.

I'm most used to my Sig P226, which has no external safety. It of course has a firing pin block safety, sine gaged only via the trigger. I carry this in DA mode. As long as the gun is holstered with the trigger covered, no problem. My HK's do have safeties, and I do tend to use them. But not cocked and locked, safety on, and DA.

Weapons with slide mounted safety/decocker - OFF
1911 - Cocked & Locked
