Re: To chamber or not to chamber

I own a Sig P238. It needs to be cocked and locked to be of any use in an emergency. I am concerned though of leaving it that way 24/7/365 because of wear on the springs, dirt getting down in the hammer area, etc. Likewise, having to empty the chamber and reload the same round in the magazine seems to cause wear and tear on the chambered round casing (dents). Would you empty the chamber and de-cock for storage if you weren't going to carry but a few times each week?

Thoughts?
