no one that "press checks" should be allowed to handle a gun

it can only mean you can't keep track of if your gun is loaded or not

I use it as an extra layer of security. In thousands of times checking, I've been correct every single time, but it makes me feel better.

My Hellcat has a small hole on top of the slide that lets you spot check if there is brass or not to know if it’s loaded.
>>
>>65190508
M&P's have this too. And on Glocks the extractor protrudes out of the side further with a round chambered, so you don't have to press check them either (at least on my Gen3 it does).

How do you not know if your gun is loaded or not?
>>
>>65190408
wow, I didn't know 2016 talking points were evergreen!
>>
>>65190508
Pretty sure all modern pocket pistols have this as a feature now. It's quite handy
>>
>>65190839
you pull the trigger retard

>>65190408
Tons of veterans do it. Especially armorers and RSOs. The chance that the idiot returning his firearm left it loaded is not zero, especially considering you'll deal with thousands of idiots throughout your career.

ngl that's actually really cool

I just shake my sp101 if the shells clonk around like they're loaded, it's probably loaded.

Dead board.

>Especially armorers and RSOs
Well they're even bigger fucking idiots because they're checking for a CLEAR gun, not a loaded one. Lock the slide back and fucking visually inspect the fucking chamber.
>>
>>65191806
gets it

>>65190508
sounds like it would weaken the chamber
>>
>>65191310
By this logic, cars should not have milage counters because you remember that you last changed the oil and oil filter in the winter and it is almost summer.

I wish I could watch the cliff's notes version of the life of people like this to see how severly they damge themeselves and the people around them.

I think that would be top tier TV. Comedy gold.
>>
just look down the barrel to check

>stereotypical 4channer who is incredibly sensitive to what he perceives as people putting on airs

>>65191298
>all modern
even the walther pp from 1929 has a loaded chamber indicator, and probably some earlier ones even do too

press checking just means you bought a shit gun
>>
>>65190408
>not using your clearing log
>>
>>65190508
You should never depend on a loaded chamber indicator to let you know if your gun is hot or not. All guns are always loaded, until you visually and physically inspect the firearm yourself.

Glocks do kinda have a feature similar to a witness hole found on other handguns, though not explicitly so. Load a round in the chamber, then look to the right side, you'll see the casing in a small space between the extractor and barrel.

the 92 line has a red indicator on the extractor
but if you can actually see it you don't shoot your gun enough
>>
>>65190408
Yes anon you should check by pointing the gun to your head and pulling the trigger.
