The only way to get a SA/DA to fire DA on the first shot is to decock it, but your gun does not have a decocker, so I'm inclined to say no, there is not a way to do what you want to do. If I recall, that gun has a fairly long trigger pull which is basically the safety. I can't remember if it has a manual safety. I remember the guy at the gun show explaining that it would only function in DA mode after a misfire.
It depends on how comfortable you are with the trigger pull, but you might want to consider carrying with the safety off. Flipping the safety is one of those fine motor skills that pretty much go out the window under high stress. If you carry with the safety on, just dry fire practice lots. It takes about 3000 repetitions to develop muscle memory. My PT92 has a combination decocker/safety. I carry it decocked with the safety off.
I'm not familiar with the PT111 Pro, so I've held off from commenting, but use the manual safety if the hammer is back. If the gun has a decocker, use it to lower the hammer and the weapon will fire DA when needed. If there is no decocker, someone familiar with the gun can tell you if you can manually lower the hammer and fire DA when needed.
Your pistol is double action only. I carry the PT 145 Pro model. The only time your gun is cocked is when you pull back on the trigger. When the trigger pull is all the way to the rear, the firing pin is released and the firing pin then strikes the primer.
Try all you may, you cannot EVER cock this gun and have at stay cocked. Carry it with a round in the chamber and flip the safety on.
You may want to consider selling it to me and buying a revolver... :sarcastic::laugh:
