Siewert admitted that guns are not of much use unless they are loaded and there is a round in the chamber.

If you are going to carry an unloaded fire arm you might as well leave it at home. The chances of an attacker giving you a chance to cycle the slide are pretty slim.

I carry everywhere. It’s sad that nobody here in FR land supports carrying unload and empty barrel.

Most of my time is spent on my property. If I see a potential situation I will load and lock in an instant. There is virtually no reason I won’t have advance notice.
