Need every second? I plan to show great restraint in administering any lethal force. For one I don't want to hurt anyone unless absolutely necessary and two, use that gun and the reality is that you are probably in for the legal hassel of your life. Use it wrong and you live with it the rest of your life.
Exactly! Which is a great reason to carry with a round in the chamber. I think my odds of stopping an attack without having to fire a shot---definitely a favorable outcome, right?---are better if I can draw and aim a weapon without having to fumble around with the slide to get it ready and hoping I don't short stroke it. I think the odds of the attack continuing and either you or the attacker ending up shot are greater if you can't instantly present the possibility of deadly force but first have to do a 2 handed operation to get the gun ready.
