If not, you can have my ex-wife!
A ND never sounded so appealing huh?

Is this something you would do on a daily basis, or only once in awhile?
As someone who has used firearms for 40 years, I have never chambered a weapon in my home or in a car. The only time I load a firearm is at a range or in a tree stand. For security at home, my Ruger and its loaded magazine sit side by side.
A 5 gallon bucket and a 50# bag of sand. About $7 at your favorite home improvement store.
I can only carry when traveling (utah permit), so I'm not chambering a round in my carry gun that often. When I'm home, it's loaded, but no round in the chamber, just a slide rack away. If you don't have time in a HD situation to rack a slide, you're probably done anyway.

I have honestly never given this question much thought. I usually just drop the mag, keep finger outside for trigger and rack it. I never considered a ND, since I place a premium on safety at all times.
