I've actually moved past condition three, and into condition seven, skipping four through six without even pausing.
For those not familiar, condition seven is where I carry a pistol's slide, my wife carries the frame and my adult son carries the magazine. With a little practice, I can be ready to defend us in only a little over two minutes.
Still, I'm a bit hesitant about having the weapon so very nearly assembled. We're discussing moving to condition thirty seven, which is where I carry the slide, my wife carries the frame, my adult son carries the unloaded magzine and we don't carry any ammo at all, hoping that in an emergency some passer-by will have spare 9mm to lend. Anybody else using this?

Good Sarcasm.
The first week after I bought my pistol I didn't even put a loaded magazine in it because it made me nervous.
I just got used to the idea of carrying a loaded gun, I'm not used to the idea of carrying a chambered round yet.
I was raised in a gunless (somewhat anti-gun) family. I've muddled through 44 years of life without carrying or owning a handgun or even thinking much about it. So condition 3 for the past month is a step up for me.
