[QUOTE="David2012, post: 1950659, member: 24428"] I'm just stirring the pot to get a rise out of people. I'm not trying to change anyone to any certain method. Like I posted earlier, I carry a Glock with one in the chamber all the time. I not gonna quibble with people and tell them they are 100% wrong for not carrying chamber loaded. I don't think that 5-tenths of a second longer to rack a round is gonna matter one bit in a real life self defense situation. It is people's hesitation to pull the trigger once they draw that is more likely to get a person with a Carry Permit killed. Whether it is a person with a Glock that has a New York Trigger having a 11 pound pull... or a guy carrying a Semi-auto with a empty chamber using the Israeli Draw, or a guy with a revolver with a heavy trigger pull and holsterd with a thumb strap... if they practice with their weapon, they will probably be within about 5-tenths of a second of each other. The difference isn't worth all the hullabaloo that has been stirred up in this thread. Just practice with the method you decide to use and don't be switching back & forth from one style to another. The recently posted video of the guy accidently shooting himself in the leg demonstrated what can happen with inconsitant training. He trained one way in the morning, then switched to different gun & holster in the evening.... and shot himself. [/QUOTE]
