Do you conceal carry ?

[wjh2657]

I CC a S&W revolver at all times. So no question about it, fully loaded and ready to go.

[ajclod]

IWB cocked and locked.

[Guest jspin]

I CC almost all the time, one in the chamber and the safety off. I carry in the small of my back so im not gonna have time to fiddle with a safety if im in a crunch. I also have kids so if its not rubbing my back then its in the safe.

Weapon of choice is Ruger P345

[Glock30Owner]

I carry my G30 with one in the chamber and in the open at all times.

XD-40 compact. Concealed. One in the chamber. ALWAYS!

One in the chamber, decocked, safety off...

Carry Concealed

Me too

[Guest grimel]

Red status is cocked and locked with the safety on.

And yes I do, lol.

According to who?

Lets end the thread now before it gets dumb.

I second the motion.

Wow, I guess I am one of the only ones that carry without one in the chamber. Just got my permit this summer, I do carry concealed most places (Taurus PT145). I have a 5 year old son, so one is NEVER in the chamber. I feel like that is the best safety procedure around my son, there is no way he could chamber a round in it.

I understand an empty chamber when you aren't carrying your weapon, but what will you do if you're ever in a situation where you have to use your weak hand to push your son to safety while you draw? That extra second or two to rack the slide could mean the difference between life and death.

[Guest Bluemax]

I always carry with a chambered round and feel that is the way to go as long as you are comfortable enough with your side arm to do so safely

[Guest BoltAction]

One in the chamber always.

[LagerHead]

I carry concealed with one in the chamber. If I wanted something to throw at an attacker, I would have bought a rock, not a gun.

[Guest walkingdeadman]

My Model 23 is always ready to rock when it's on my side...if not my glock...then maybe my shank made of fiberglass.

[Guest WRustyLane]

Yes, I carry a concealed weapon (9mm) with one in the pipe and a full mag.

[Caster]

I only carry when I am wearing clothes.

[mcurrier]

I only carry when I feel that there might be trouble. And then, I never have one in the chamber because I am afraid that the gun might go off by itself and shoot me. Guns are evil. Hammers are not evil. I know both are tools, but...guns are evil. I've never heard of anyone being killed by a hammer, but guns will try and kill you every chance they get. (that's 'sarcasm' for nimrods who didn't immediately get it)

On the other hand, no round in the chamber = empty gun/paperweight.

[gregintenn]

If you don't understand the machanical operation of your handgun well enough, or don't have enough faith in it to carry it loaded, you've got the wrong kind of gun.

[hipower]

Auto-full load and one chambered. D/A or DAO revolvers- full load always.
