How many people actually put a round in the chamber then pull the clip, add another to the clip, and then reclip it?

I am sure some do, but it seems odd.

BTW, why would a guy with a gun (other than Police) tackle another person? It seems most likely that Trayvon physically engaged Zimmerman.

This whole situation seems to be almost made to order for Obama and the summer of protests that his campaign wants. I say almost, because Zimmerman turns out to be Hispanic and not White. Can Obama afford to loose the Hispanic vote by siding with Holder’s People?

I don't know about everybody, but I sure do.

God forbid, I might need that last shot.

I sometimes top mine up and sometimes don’t. It is probably better for the mag not to keep it 100% loaded but I figure at my age, my Grandchildren can worry about spring tension.

I have a couple of Argentine made mags for the Browning Hi-Power and they have such a heavy spring that I purposely keep them topped up hoping to loosen that spring tension. So far it hasn’t worked.

I do and virtually everyone I know who carries does.

I don’t carry a spare magazine (not clip) and want to have the full capacity the gun is capable of. With my Glock G23 that gives me 14 rounds of .40 caliber pain. If I need more than that then I am definitely in the wrong place at the wrong time. Since I go out of my way to avoid that I don’t carry a spare magazine.

Mexican/Spanish vs blacks will take all of Obama’s race relations double talk to cover over this incident. The foolish in fools has certainly been exposed by the pundits.
