That is 50/50, some people agree but some people disagree.
Safety is a good reason, but also as the evidence in the video shows, racking the bullet will make a big difference in the perception of the enemy. Brandishing, as we can see here, is a good way to deter a threat.
I personally would carry with a round in the chamber, but I understand why some would not.
i keep the shotgun in my bedroom with the pump half way down. i think that unmistakable racking sound is the best warning to get the fuck out of my home. but i don't want to leave the chamber empty and lose my +1 capacity.
Negative. If youve broken into my home with my kids and wife inside to do harm, i do not want you to have the opportunity to be able to walk out. You done fucked up boy. Supressed 300blk for the (mostly) silent win. No racking, no chambering, no warning. Im getting the drop on YOU (not you, the guy im replying to obviously, the degenerate fuck trying to harm my family). Why oh why would you want to give someone a heads up? Theyre there to hurt you. Do not forfeit an advantage. Also, have a disposal plan. Do. Not. Call. The. Police. They are not your friends. You have zero moral obligation to call them.
We both recognized that either side had merits and at its core was merely a disagreement of opinion while supporting the fundamental right of self defense and blowing the ever living hell out of a violent home invader.
One prefers to say "get out bang bang" the other one says "bang bang get out"
When I first came to voat 4 years ago, this was the first thing I noticed. Reddit is like a constant argument, on voat (most users) are willing to admit mistakes, ignorance, and actually apoligize when wrong.

She didn't understand "Get out of my way."
She didn't understand "Leave me alone."
She didn't understand "Stop blocking my car from leaving."
But she understood loud and clear the sound of a bullet being chambered into that handgun.
Some people don't understand anything other than physical threats. You can't reason with a violent instigator.

You should already have a round in the pipe tho.

Absolutely 10000% valid.
The shotgun racking sound is exactly what I was thinking.

You realize your argument is just a personal opinion and not fact right?
Ol_Hickery ago

It's almost like civility it's defined by how PC you are or how much you tow the party line.
You dumb faggot.
