Maybe not. But it's a heckuva lot more viable option than dropping the magazine.While yes shooting them would always be nice, its not always a option.

Like you said, maybe in a lifetime.....if you happen to reload on a hot chamber...which is tactically sound...and you're rushed before you can get the fresh mag in. While there's not a huge chance that'll happen in a given lifetime...I still like the option of being able to fire without a magazine present.
Planting a "seed" of doubt to reinforce your point is like saying that any safety device can go wrong. Quite true, I've seen that "once in a lifetime" happen with a decocker not pointed in a safe direction....for those who think that removing the magazine unloads the gun, and don't clear the chamber afterward. Don't laugh. I've been present for a negligent discharge when that very thing happened.

thinking someone can't hit you from behind or surprise you is asinine. One good punch in the jaw from the average guy would be enough to daze most of us.)
It keeps stupids from dry firing your guns.
the fact is, lots of LEOs are alive today because of it.
