I would also take a gander that it was discharge while cleaning the weapon. . . glock -- open slide, alter takedown lever, drop slide, remove magazine, squeeze trigger, BANG.
It happens a lot and is one of the major bad things about glock that I dislike. They are forcing users to do what is considered a no no to clean the weapon.
I dont know. I have a friend who carries his glock 36 chamber empty. He thinks he is fast enough to rack the slide while drawing. I cannot sway his thought process.
M&Ps do not. But you should still drop the mag and clear it.
The M&P system encourages you to do just that as it is. The sear release lever can only be activated with the mag removed if you insert a mag you have to activate the release again. The only way you could put a round in the chamber after doing that is to put one round in after releasing the sear and it would still not fire as the sear will not hold the striker back. Pulling the trigger at that point does nothing.

It's designed that way so you can't really accidentally leave the lever down because inserting a loaded mag lifts the lever up.
