I like Glocks (and love 33 rounds instead of the 8 for my 1911!), but I would never carry with a round chambered. I’ve never had a negligent discharge with a 1911 or any other firearm, but Glocks are different. I’ve seen too many “oopsie” videos, and you always know it’s going to be a Glock even before you see the gun.
My Glock 17 has an empty chamber. The natural motion of drawing a weapon, which is combined with taking off the safety for a 1911, is different with the Glock. When drawing the Glock, I automatically chamber a round - and then keep my finger off the trigger unless I want a loud noise.
“This is a Glock 40. I’m the only one who’s professional enough to handle one of these . . .”
