Explain to me how this seems like a good idea:
>cartridge in chamber
>hammer ready to go if you nudge the safety and snatch up your gun
>accident ready to happen/10
Do you really need 1 extra round? Does it seem smart to essentially walk around pointing a loaded gun at yourself? Btw, I'm completely new to guns and looking to get one on my 21st birthday next fall, so sorry if this is dumb.
>>
okay lets say its a glock. Theres no safety to nudge and if you "snatch up your gun" its still going off.

>what is trigger discipline?
>>
>>28092153
if we are talking about generic 1911 here

1 needing to disengage safety
2 pull trigger
3 depress grip safety

is safer than carrying you generic striker fired/ trigger safety gun, like glock

I carry an M&P with no safety, and I carry it chambered. If you exercise proper trigger discipline than you have nothing to worry about.

just carry a DA/SA with no safety, hammer down and around chambered like i do

a good DA trigger has a pull long and strong enough that an ND is highly unlikely, and smooth enough that a first shot is still fast and accurate

I'll assume you mean bumped into.

My IWB holster covers the trigger, and even if it didn't I'd have to be bumped very hard and in a specific way to catch the trigger. Once again, not at all worried.
>>
>>28092153
It's completely safe if you are, but regardless, don't carry it like that if you're uncomfortable with it.

Better yet, get a gun that suits you, like a double action with decocker or something, so you can carry it with one up and not worry.

Watch some defense shooting footages and you'll see why people recommend carrying with one chambered. It's not for the extra round, it's so you can manipulate the gun with 1 hand, and so you have fewer actions to do under adrenaline/duress/stress.
>>
This has been discussed a billion times.

With proper training, disengaging the safety or racking the slide don't make much of a difference.

For the most common types of self defense situations, it won't matter. You'll have time to do either or both of these.

The exception to this is a situation where you are already being held at gun point and have to draw and shoot as fast as possible because your life depends on it.

A "safety" on a gun is to give fuds the illusion of more safety, because unless you're using a shitty Taurus gun, then the gun doesn't fire until you pull the trigger.

The trigger shouldn't be exposed to anything other than your finger, and if it is, then that is your fault.

try doing it while under the most stress you've ever been under, you know because you are about to have to shoot someone

in self defense situations seconds count and you're going to waste time racking the slide because youre a pussy and cant grow the balls to carry condition 1? dont fucking carry you child.
>>
>>28093334
I'd like to think i'd handle the situation with as much detachment and scrutiny as any other situation.

Thankfully, I'm not retarded like that anon, and I know the likelihood of that happening is basically zilch, even with formal training.

I'm also not a little fuccboi like op who can't carry condition 0 or 1 because I'm afraid of an inanimate object.

Regardless of how well you think youll react, there is a decent possibility your non dominant hand will be tied up doing anything from carrying groceries to defending while trying to draw. carrying condition 3 is fucking useless.

So pretty much I'd have to really fuck up to shoot myself like this? That's what it seems like. The quickdraw benefits are undeniable too. Also, it seems to me that the only real way for this to happen is on the draw itself, meaning that it only happens either at the range or in an actual situation. Is that right, or is there any way the holster can be maneuvered accidentally to make the gun goes off without you grabbing at it?

If you have a terrible holster then carrying one up the pipe on something like a glock is a terrible idea.

If you arent a moron and buy a decent holster that cover the trigger there is no way for it to go off in that holster.
>>
>>28093588

I honestly do prefer it. I also won't shoot myself because I'm not a Tex Grebner-tier retard.

In everyone else's defense, I may be a colossal retard, but I am still not THAT retarded.

You and pretty much every Glockfag...

>>28093559
Honestly, all guns with "trigger safeties" are condition zero.

>>28094515

I'm not a Glockfag, though. I mean on guns that have [spoiler]traditional safeties[/spoiler].
>>
>>28092153
There is no reason not to carry with one up the pipe if you are not a conscript in a poorfag military with motley, worn-out hand-me-downs instead of a modern handgun of acceptable quality.
>>
>>28092307
>With proper training, disengaging the safety or racking the slide don't make much of a difference.

One of those you can do with one hand while having your head bounced off the pavement. No safety is better, but carrying condition 3 is retarded.

No replacement for a safety. Use your head, it's an off switch. A gun is important enough to have one and if you can't train yourself to use it quickly in a real situation then you don't deserve a gun.

Lol I don't even have the safety. My gun has a decocker but I never use it, just 3.5 pound single action all the time. I do get a little nervous when holstering, but I don't know why, I know the gun is not just going to go ff, and I've practiced draws from concealment like that probably over a thousand times and I've never had trigger get pulled accidentally.
