If I carried a Glock, I'd seriously consider doing it this way. I'm assuming you have some kind of active retention holster for duty open carry and not so active retention for CCW.

But most of my carry guns are SIG's, where the first shot is always DA, so much less chance of anything catching that trigger and pulling hard enough to make it go bang. Glocks are different and I don't train with them anyway.

My SIG P226 has the SCT grips and mags that hold 15 or so rounds of .357SIG or .40. It gets heavy that way, but I'm with Kurt on this one. No one has ever had a problem with having too much ammo.

And besides, plenty of people have not been able to rack the slide back when they really needed a gun. I want the fewest possible steps between needing it and having it. Remember, ammo is cheap. Life is expensive.
