I'm just wondering why you're going a year without exercising your firearm?rp_photo wrote:Is it detrimental to either the gun or the round if left chambered for long periods of time, say up to a year?

Re: A Round in the Chamber Carry?
I assume then that the CG carried the M9 with the hammer down? First shot DA?jrs_diesel wrote:I have not been carrying for long, but my XD has one in the chamber. I follow safe practices and handle as little as possible when it is loaded.
EDIT:
I would like to point out that this is also how we train in the Coast Guard. When carrying the Beretta M9, it had a round chambered, safety off, and holstered. With the new Sig Sauer P229's that we have, those also have a round chambered and the gun is holstered. No safety on the 229.

Re: A Round in the Chamber Carry?
Am I reading that correctly? I've carried for over six years now and I always have one in the chamber but if I'm carrying a weapon with a manual safety it's on.rytchard wrote:........until just recently I never carried a round in the chamber unless the safety was engaged. Now I do. .....
