OBTW, a security guard at one of my former employers liked to play “Quick Draw McGraw” in the restroom. He was fired after firing a round into the mirror.

2) Guns are fun, so play around with them any way you like. Doing "Quick Draw McGraw" drills with your buddy is a lot of fun!
Up the road from me, two local deputies were suspended a couple years back when their sergeant walked out into the hallway where they were each at opposite ends of the hall doing the quick draw mcgraw drills at each other with their duty weapons. A crowd of other deputies was egging them on.
From this, we learn that life imitates art and that I live in a really bad place.

The coach can rarely outperform the athlete he trains. This does not demean his value.

which you chose to avoid...No issue with your post, except to clarify that "use" in No. 3 is user defined, as you noted.
Obeying NRA No. 1 and No. 2 will ensure the loaded vs. unloaded condition is irrelevant. If it's not in "use" it should be unloaded.
"Every gun is loaded" is fiction, and adds nothing useful outside of the requirement for NRA 1 and 2.

We are in violent agreement that all guns should be treated as loaded until proven otherwise (dry fire, disassembly, repair, storage, cleaning etc.) but if you don't acknowledge that guns can in fact be unloaded, the aforementioned activities become difficult. I would rephrase the rule as "Always be prepared for firearms to perniciously load or unload themselves any time you're not looking. If you must dry-fire a firearm to disassemble it, watch it especially closely from the time you check the chamber (including, preferably, shining a light through the bore) to the time you actually dry-fire it. The ammo gremlins can be extremely sneaky, so one must be exceptionally vigilant.

I carry hot. I was trained Cooper. NRA rules are good for the kids and those who don't have a need to carry hot, and those who haven't been shooting all their lives, or those who don't have a need to go to war at the drop of a pin. When the shtf, you fall back to your training, and Cooper's rules are sufficient and necessary to keep you from shooting off your toe, blowing your partner away, or taking out a bystander; and most importantly, making it home alive. That's my opinion, I admit I'm an asshole, and everybody has one... now what the hell was the question?

I would expect more maturity from the “teacher of teachers”.

Here, I’ll hold the nail, and when I nod my head, you hit it with the hammer.
Damn, I wish I could organize my thoughts enough to write as well as you do. Excellent post.

Did you notice my voice has gotten more mature...I noticed it gets a little lower and gravelly when you drink wine. I know better than to get into a discussion about maturity with you, so I think instead I'll get the new Sig out of the safe and clean the cosmolene off. I'm pretty sure the boys up in the live free or die state wouldn't have left any bullets in it, eh?
