Not trying to tell y'all how to keep your guns, but a Glock is perfectly safe to carry/store with a round in the chamber. See also this guide which applies in some ways:

There is this possible use of racking the slide as an aural "warning shot", like the universally understood sound of a pump action 12-guage (the one thing we really can thank Hollywood for). Many tacticians will be wary of the value of such that strategy. For a 12-ga with ample preparation, I think it is probably a good strategy. Using your voice and motion-activated lights may be just as effective. But I don't think you should keep the Glock that way because you think it is safer with regard to possible accidental discharge. Probably a lot of others will pick up on this (wdavis is quoting pfb I think).

What's a handgun?

 

That's what I love about the P7 - it's always ready to go and every pull is a decent single action pull...

I don't seem to be very good at shooting it sideways homie style though...

 

If so many people in the US have guns, why has nobody shot Bush yet?

 

You'll have your chance this week!

 

...but we can't buy / own guns

 

Not legally, anyways...

I like the video of that gal hanging on the fence @ the Palace.

Well I went to the gun store today and I took a look at a couple models.

 

I hope you are seriously joking about this... because it is a federal offense to make a threat like that. The secret service takes things like that very very seriously.

**edit** i was going to write this entire thing about Bush, war.. but i just realized, that it would get this thread locked.. so i will keep my mouth shut...

But back to the Gun topic....
Does anyone have a conceal weapon's permit?
