That’s another one that hates the constitution.
Not fitting in with you sounds like an achievement everyone should strive for. Thanks.

Curious, why the difference? Having one chambered has nothing to do with how you carry…
If you’re actually wanting to learn, I highly recommend seeking out a defensive pistol (also called defensive gun fighting) course near you. Then, I recommend completing a CQC course. There are versions for both IWB and OWB, and then lectures available that talk about when to apply each. There are no courses from any respected instructor that will tell you that you have to always carry either IWB, OWB, chambered, or not chambered, because it’s nuanced. The decision is based on a set of variables, and the amount of training you have in each scenario determines which application you should use.
I regularly rotate between IWB, OWB, chambered, and unchambered combinations based on the scenario I’m getting myself into. For example: There’s zero statistical evidence that would support the claim that you need to carry IWB/chambered to go to your local dollar store or grocery store in the middle of the afternoon. However, if you’re driving for Uber in a bad neighborhood in the middle of the night, then yes, you definitely want it chambered. If you’re going full-kit and engaging targets directly, as with an asset recovery or exec. protection team, you’re definitely dressed in a full rig with OWB/chambered pistol and/or rifle. And there’s a million scenarios in between. There’s no “one” way to carry, unless someone got their training from watching too many movies and call of duty.
I have. I had concealed carry in CO, but now that I live in Florida, its constitutional carry.
To each their own, but the problem I see with switching back and forth constantly is that in the heat of the moment, I dont want to be questioning whether I have one chambered or not. Thinking it is chambered, and finding out after trying to pull the trigger could mean life or death.

You said: “I could shoot you faster with one in the chamber .”
I don’t know why you think you’d ever need to shoot me. I’m not the one feeding you bad information.
You have my respect if you successfully completed a close-quarter-combat course and know how to navigate and clear rooms in a home. Kudos! Not many people subject themselves to that course, but it’s fun and educational!
For the average person, they aren’t switching between many applications. For some of us, it’s just another day. It all boils down to training and skills.
Those that think it can’t be done can’t do it. Those that know it can be done, they do it.

Those who think all that bullshit matters hasn’t crossed my threshold uninvited. 
We’re talking about home inspection applications, not your house. Thanks.

Damn Y’all are such wimps! Down here in the Great State of Texas we carry the Sig LMG to inspections https://www.sigsauer.com/media/sigsauer/resources/WEB-2023_DSG_CATALOG_8-28-23.pdf . Nobody messes with us during inspections they just stay out of our way! After all we do have a saying “Don’t Mess With Texas!”.

I agree with Daniel!
I always leave my firearm in the same ready state specifically so I don’t have to remember whether it’s chambered or not.
If it’s on my person it is chambered. If it’s in the nightstand it’s not.
That way if I need to use it I know with some certainty what needs to happen to make it go bang.

I got stuck up on a roof years ago due to a fog that decided to guard my ladder. After about 45 minutes sitting up there the homeowner came home and informed me the dog had puppies under the front porch. I never leave my phone in the vehicle again.
