For me - cartridge in chamber, hammer down, safety on. Safety can be optional on my pistol, first trigger pull is long like a revolver (H&K USP Compact). I see why cops carry Glocks - no conventional safety, it's in the trigger. But, that works for them, it's not my preference.

Glocks don't, which still works for a lot of people if sales statistics mean anything. Trigger/safety function should be a BIG consideration in a pistol purchase.
Oh, I can also carry mine hammer back, safety on, like a 1911. I love my H&K...

A friend carries his .45 1911A1 holstered, round in chamber, safety on and hammer cocked. I questioned him once on the hammer cocked aspect. He is what I consider a weapons expert and said it was for speed.

Fred,it is for speed,but you also carry one "cocked and locked" because John Browning designed the 1911A1 designs to be carried that way. I ain't going to say I like them,but I own 3 of them and have never even been tempted to buy a Glock. To me,a Glock would be a step down in safety.
BTW,the US Military,fully understanding that idiots like MP's (Teddy Kennedy was a MP) would be issued and carry 1911A1 designs regulates they be carried in full flap holsters with an empty chamber.
