Anthony2 - I feel the need to correct a flaw in your plans when you carry a weapon; it may save your life if the unthinkable should ever occur to you.

Your idea to have a blank in the chamber and fire it to get a live round in the chamber is the flaw. A blank cartridge will not operate any semiautomatic action that I am aware of. It would be better to simply leave the chamber empty if desired and quickly rack the slide when you draw the pistol.

After you become comfortable with the pistol of your choice, you may want to keep a live round in the chamber - strictly your choice.
