i've been around them so long they're just another machine to me. i exercise caution ofcourse, but have become so familiar with my carry gun, that i can hit the mag release, and drop the mag into my hand without even looking. i particularly love my 'morning warmup' as i call it, after i go to work, get my gun case out, pull the slide back, visual confirm she's empty, hit the release and positively love the sound of the slide smacking in, slip a mag in her, pull the trigger- listen for the click, and i'm condition 3 confirmed and ready to go, swoop her down to the retention holster, and onward into a peace of mind confirmed day. the only real anxiexty i have is when she's not on my hip.
