Two thumbs forward. I agree, Koenig has some good training videos. Here's a video worth checking too. He speaks about 1911s near end. On YouTube he's known as Hickok45. This video addresses your question. If you like his style check out some of his other videos. Educational and entertaining.

My young instructor at the RSO class today took me to task over not using thumbs forward..telling me how it was best, the slide would cut me using thumbs crossed, recoil recovery, ect.....I promptly drew and made forehead hits on the bad guys peeking out from behind the steel hostages. He moved on. It was a good day, and fun was had by all

+ a dozen or two for T.F. grip. It allows me to change from 2 to single hand with little or no gun re-orientation involved.

For me it also makes for an easier mag drop.

Funny, but when I'm shooting right handed, it's thumbs forward. Left handed, it's thumbs crossed.
Go figure. But it works for me.
