I currently carry an M&P9C IWB, which I like but it does not have a thumb safety, so I don't carry with a round chambered. I like the gun and how it shoots but I also have a full size Beretta 92FS and Ruger SR1911 that I like and both shoot well also. I would consider carrying either, other than their size and finding the right holster and carry position. I'm about 6' and svelte 160#.
Another reason is that they both have a safety so I would feel better with a round chambered and the safety on.
So I guess I'd like to know some opinions on carrying with a round in the chamber or carrying without one in the chamber.
Am I kind of defeating the purpose of carrying when I carry a weapon that is not loaded? Thoughts?
Thanks.
