    I think you may be missing something. Racking is easy to do when you have the time to do it. It can become a bit of an issue if you have to do it in a split second because you just were sucker punched from behind and your life depends of you doing everything perfectly while you are somewhat dazed and probably on the ground.

    I believe you are just adding a huge potential for a malfunction at exactly the wrong time. This can be expanded to include the potential for an unintentional limp wrist malfunction following your successful racking one in the chamber. I won't even go into if the gun has a functional safety or not.
    No worries here. I ALWAYS top off my firearms, I ALWAYS carry one in the chamber, and I NEVER have to rack the slide. Same goes for EVERY firearm I own. They are consistently ALWAYS the same. I'm not missing much, all though the wife may argue that point...................
    I believe this so much that unless I am going for the absolute thinnest (PM9) IWB or pocket carry, you will find me with a j-frame with lasergrips and a speedstrip or two in my pocket. The laser easily makes up for the small round count and crappy sights on most pocket guns.

    Manual of arms for operating a revolver: Pull trigger until you hear "click", reload or top off and repeat until threat is neutralized.

    Currently awaiting arrival of someone who will allow me to win a bid on a Kimber K6S at a reasonable price.

    Just my 2¢
    No worries here..........I ALWAYS top off my mags. I ALWAYS carry with a chambered round. I NEVER have to rack a slide. It's this way with ALL of my firearms. Consistently. Never any surprises. I'm not missing a thing, although the wife may argue that point.
