The legal definition of “unloaded” in Utah is not having a round chambered. You can have a magazine in the well.

Thank you...it always helps to know what the definitions are. There were 8 posts before yours that need not to have been made. The ole jump-to-conclusions stuff again w/o facts. :)

Thank you for the explanation.
I wonder what this would mean for a revolver, no round in one chamber or no round in the next chamber when cocked and fired?
Except for a few folks and a very few situations, I would expect it would be worth while to get the concealed carry permit, as having to “chamber a round” takes time and when deadly force is required, time is of the essence.
