[QUOTE="Rustygun, post: 3365590, member: 4711"] Seems there are a lot of different opinions about the safety aspects of carrying a handgun with a round chambered. One school of thought is if there is a threat it happens fast and you may not have time or a free hand to cycle a slide. Do you carry with the guns safety engaged? As you all know, there are some handguns that do not have a safety and are meant to be carried hot. The alternate is no round chambered which limits the chance for a negligent discharge and it is considered by some to be much safer. And then there is the revolver where the only safety is the long trigger pull. Lots of variations here, do you carry hot, do you use the safety if your gun has one? What is your preference and why?
