[QUOTE="bigcountryok, post: 865290, member: 4368"] If you're not that comfortable with your M&P that you feel its safe to carry with a round in the chamber then I would suggest that you get a pistol that you have confidence in and will carry in condition 1. I have an M&P and Glock for CCW. I have full confidence in both pistols. Always practice gun saftey, treat them as if they could go bang at any second, but have full faith that they will not go off until the trigger is pulled. IMO carrying a gun in condition 3 is a waste. Keep in mind, your fine motor skills will be shot if you're in that situation. If you are lucky enough to be able to use two hands trying to remember to rack the slide is going to be difficult. Thats one of the things l like about the "trigger saftey" pistols, less things to do between threat recognition and pulling the trigger. Spend time shooting, getting familiar with the pistol, and carry it around the house with one in the chamber. Before long you will get use to it. [/QUOTE]
