If I’m wrong tell me but I was thinking the same thing.
If it’s out and not locked in the safe I keep mine chambered.

It’s not problematic if you do it safely.

I don’t store weapons with a round in the chamber; I don’t like it, it’s not how I was taught growing up around firearms, and I won’t do it.

More power to those who do; we all get to make our own choices.

I just replace rounds in autos that get carried; usually every 4-5 chamberings. Ammo is cheap.

I also usually carry a revolver, though, so that makes it a non-issue for me.

Storing (not for immediate emergency use) firearms I’m with you it’s not chambered and locked in gun safe. Carry and home defense which are usually limited to three. A conceal carry handgun, Glock 17, and an ar rifle I keep all 3 chambered.
If I leave the home I’ll lock the ar rifle and Glock 17 in rapid “safe” metal box but don’t like to chamber the rifle multiple times a day coming and going. I’ve never had it happen but been told by firearms instructors that light primer strikes though rare can happen with ar’s.
No kids or houseguests, usually just me, my wife and dogs.

If it’s not on my person, it’s stored.

Revolvers kept “at ready” have the cylinder swung open, but loaded. Imit’s the same thing as keeping a loaded mag in the weapon (which many of the guns in the safe have).
 
Well, I'll just say this. Any handgun I may or may not have that is intended for home defense, whether it's in a safe or not is loaded with one in the chamber. My carry guns are loaded with one in the chamber. Any shotguns I may or may not have in or out of the safes that are defensive shotguns are loaded, some "Cruiser" or equivalent, some with a round chambered. Anything I may or may not have that is essentially "Stored" are not loaded.

I rotate out carry ammo every few months and in the event I need to unload the gun for any other reason I empty the mag and put the previously chambered round at the bottom of the magazine.

Growing up I always had guns, but they were hunting guns and not loaded until I was in the field. The old man's SD guns were always fully loaded and from a very young age I knew where they were and how to use them. I also knew if I did use them I had better have unimpeachable justification or I was getting my *** kicked. There were never any such problems. I raised my daughter the same way. Again, there were never any problems. These days it's me, the woman and two cats. I don't foresee any problems.

A gun is always loaded whether or not it is

That's always been my take on it.

Nevertheless, when you need it to be it damn well better be.

I have the P320 Flux with a Trijicon Green dot MRO on top. It hasn’t fired un-commanded yet (I think the MRO is somehow interfering with it & may have to send it in to Sig for look see 🤔 😂).
But seriously, Compact & easy to deploy, I like it so much that I’ll probably end up getting the Flux chassis for the P365.

My 320's are in the vault, lying in wait for an unsuspecting victim. You gotta watch them! (Tic)

I will 100% admit, I got lazy about this. I will make it a habit to start doing this. I actually did it yesterday because of this thread

The other thing to think about is bullet setback. .40 S&W is notorious for it. My procedure was to mark the round that had been chambered with a Sharpie with a line across the base of the case. Once it had 2 lines (X) it went into the 3rd magazine and wouldn't be chambered again unless fired.

320 jokes are fun! I had a guy pulling my leg who said, "If you're worried about it going off and shooting yourself in the leg... just carry it in a horizontal shoulder holster!" :unsure: 😲
