I have a Sig P226 and Browning HP, but I'm not sure about having one chambered while I'm out and about. I will get my concealed license soon, so I'm trying to figure out the best way to carry it. Do people normally carry it with a round in the chamber? I'm thinking of carrying it with a loaded magazine but no round in the chamber.
I understand it'd take that extra 1-3 sec (not to mention both hands) to rack the slide and chamber/cock hammer, but is this time crucial? Would not having it chambered defeat the whole point of concealed carry? I would like some advice in this area, thanks.
