Just a question for OCers with semi autos. When carrying do you keep an empty mag in your weapon or have no mag? Which do you prefer?
The reason I ask is that I instinctively like the idea of having an empty mag in the weapon because a BG can't be sure if it's loaded or not. (Although if he knows I'm not LE and knows the law, he might have a good idea it's empty.)
The argument against this I imagine is that if you ever had to load your gun in a hurry you'd have to take an extra second to drop the empty mag before inserting a loaded one.
I was wondering what others' preferences are on this? Thanks in advance.
