Yes. You could always not top off your magazine after loading one in the chamber and thereby greatly reduce your risk of a failure to feed while in a life or death situation.

It's your life, you do what you want. I will, however, play the odds on this one.
Or you could get a Glock and not worry about FTFs. :mrgreen:
I carry m&p which is basically the same gun internally, and I still would not do it.

Glocks are by far, overrated. Gen 4's have several documented FTF's btw.
Only in 9mm - like any self-respecting gun owner would carry a 9mm. :biggrinjester:
I guess I'm not a self-respecting gun owner...

Re: Who carries their gun with a full mag +1?

I always carry with one in the hole, but I never top it off. I've heard of the aforementioned feeding issues, and I really don't think the 1 extra round is worth the risk of a misfeed, jam, or etc, since I usually have the spare mag on my person as well.

If 34 or 51 bullets can't get me to safety then I'm probably done for anyways.
