Holster choice is broad today, and this will help. Also, there are many pistols with an anti-stress trigger set up and they work well.

Then again, once you chamber a round and snap off that safety on the 1911, your finger is the safety. So that brings me right back to proper holster choice: when the S-D pistol is in your fist, you're fixing to use it. So logically, the concern you had must be accidental discharge when carrying.
