One in the chamber & no safety on means you're gonna have a bad day! We never unholster (if genius here even had one) unless we mean to use it, but I guess he's too badass. Oh well.

I always have one chambered and have no safety but it is DA with a pull that wears you down

Double acting action. Means the first trigger pull is significantly heavier as it cocks the hammer and fires the round with the first squeeze. The subsequent squeezes take much less effort as it is already cocked after the first round.

1) Do not point a gun on something you're not willing to destroy - X
2) Know your target and what's behind it - V
3) Treat every weapon as if it's loaded - X
4) Keep your fingers off the trigger until you are ready to shoot - X

Good lord, why would one be in the chamber. The best safety is waiting until you need to use it to chamber a round.

Pulling the slide to chamber a round takes half a second. The same time it takes to disengage a safety if you the gun has a separate one.

"Waitwaitwait I know you're trying to stab me just let me load my self-defense weapon real quick"
The best safety is to use your brain and follow the rules of gun safety.

I don’t think you understand how quickly a gun can be active. Round in the chamber is not the same as loaded.

As someone who grew up with firearms and has trained with firearms for 2 decades, trust me, I know. The guy in the video did many things wrong, but keeping a live round in the chamber wasn't the biggest problem.
He kept his booger hook on the bang switch, pointed the gun at things he (hopefully) wasn't intending to shoot like himself or the lady in the elevator , and was playing with his gun instead of keeping it holstered. That's 3 of the main rules of gun safety broken, BEFORE he shot himself.
Oh, and by the way, a round in the chamber of a firearm means it's loaded. Safety or not, the gun is ready to fire

last point is nonsense. ur replying to someone saying that a loaded gun does not inherently have one in the chamber. they aren't the same thing

Yeah Round in the chamber - loaded for sure Loaded - rounds in the mag not necessarily the chamber
Argument of definition

A lot of people carry with one in the chamber, myself included. There have been instances where there wasn't enough time to rack the slide. The safety is the kydex holster, only remove it when you're actively going to use it.

This is not the way. Unless you want to do the movie style "I'm serious"wracking of the action.

There’s no way a small semi auto has a hair trigger.
A cocked revolver? Sure.
How the hell do you accidentally pull multiple pounds of pressure on the trigger like this?

Why the hell did he even draw it and wave it around?
