Deerhunter-
I don't see any logic in not having the magazine in the gun loaded at all times. Suggest that you do that, and have the safety ON. Or do it, and have the safety OFF with action locked or with trigger tripped.
But not having that loaded mag means you have to insert cartridges in the heat of the moment-all of them, or however many you want. It's just not efficient at all from a tactical standpoint, Deerhunter.
I appreciate the sentiment, but I prefer things my way. Using my guns are all about how I operate. Just how different people prefer different types of firearms and different options for their particular gun, this is how I prefer to operate. I can load a couple shells pretty fast. I am not worried one bit. If I was worried, If I wasn't confident in how I can load my shotgun, I would have my magazine full.
I find it safer, too. What if I forget I had cartridges in the magazine? What if someone else in the house doesn't know that there are cartridges in the magazine?
