Not having a round in the chamber = might as well be carrying a brick.....
I'd probably drop that on my foot. :shocked:

It looks like you owe LIberty701 a Benjamin. He might accept pymt in ammo.For years I've been offering $100 for an accident report that proves this.
I carry a pocket semi-auto pocket pistol. There isn't a safety lever on the little bugger. In a hasty effort to pull it out of my pocket, I run the risk of it discharging with one in the tube. I'll take the extra 1.2 seconds to jack one in the chamber vs one in the leg ( or other regions of my autonomy) any day. And I'm comfortable with that. No training needed.
Unless maybee you own a REM 700 or a few other firearms that can be made to essentially fire on their own without intent. Like fiipping a safety off or a design that allows an external part to contact the seir, so when squeezing the gun or setting it down it can fire. Poor designs imho. There are a few examples of these issues for those that care to search. REM just settled a huge lawsuit about the same, large recall and trigger replacement program.
So, I'd call a discharge when you are not touching the trigger accidental..
Why does it make any difference? I mean, if you don't know, there is no gun to worry about as far as you know. And if you do know there is a gun, that is less disturbing to you for some reason? WTH? Sorry, but this almost defies logic.
If I do know there's a gun on someone's belt, it's up to me to walk away. If it's concealed, I don't get to make that choice. Just saying.
Which has absolutely nothing to do with the topic...
Ok, I'll give you that. But...I do want to see that holster for the 700.![]()
