Good video review....but you make me nervous leaving a loaded mag just for "ascetics". Pop the mag and dont worry about how the gun looks. Especially since you were pointing it at your self during the video.

I was good thanks i had the safety on the whole time no big deal but thanks anyways

I'll keep it to myself.

Good looking weapon!

Yup.

"Treat every firearm as if it were loaded."

I understand what you are saying king. And i know its just me...nothing against you....it just goes against how i was raised to handle a firearm. Treat it like its loaded means dont point it at anyone (especially myself). And if I am showing it to someone or handleing it myself i defiantly dont leave a loaded mag in the thing. Like I said its all me and nothing against you.

Thanks again for shareing a good video though!

Good review, its good for vermin hunting also. Instead of paying to go to a range I just put up an add about vermin hunting for farmers for free. Some land-owners property are swarmed with creatures of the night.

I see nothing wrong with leaving a loaded mag. I don't own a gun that the mag is not loaded. All mine outside of the safe have one in the chamber also. A gun can not go off without a round in the chamber, end of subject. No more dangerous than walking out of a store with a bag full of ammo in boxes.

I carry with one in the chamber as well... but I still dont fling my gun to-and-fro with a loaded mag. Accidents happen.

It's just the way that I was brought up and taught to treat weapons... if you're not prepared to fire, loaded mag isn't necessary.
