Cool - I've never been in the military (unfortunately), but it's nice to know there are millions of others out there that do the same thing!

I've found that there is usually a clear view down the barrel on my (small collection) of pistols when the slide is locked back. I never dry fire, disassemble, or consider a gun 'safe' until I've opened the slide, checked for a round in the chamber, then checked again by locking the slide all the way back and looking through the tiny cracks/crevices on the back of the slide until I get a clear view all the way down the barrel to a light on the ceiling. Anal, I know, but at least I know 100% the gun is empty.
