If only it were that mundane a reason...

One little detail(I only read page 1,so forgive me if I restate something)
How do you load that +1 round?
If you drop a round in the chamber and then drop the slide,some handguns,like the 1911 are designed to have the round feed up under the extractor.It is a bad idea to have them spring over the rim.The extractor does not like it.
To answer the original question,
1. Yes, I always carry +1.
2. No, I do not top off the mag to full capacity. I keep those mags loaded at 90% capacity to lessen jamming potential and increase spring life. So for my primary carry Glock 30, that's 9 in the mag, and for my AR-15, with the 30-round mags, that's 26-27.
on your cary pistols do you chamber a round, then load your mag to max?
IE:15+1, 8+1, etc?
if u need an entire mag during a firefight, either you're in iraq or on swat. if i have to empty a clip, then god help me. this isn't terminator where we shoot robots...
It's best to be prepared
I only go +1 when I am going to a hostile situation. Otherwise its just one in the chamber, and mag also not stuffed to limit.

Lots of bozos work in businesses but it doesn't mean they know what they are talking about.
LOL!!! Actually you don't have just my word on it, you also have the word of most members of the active shooting fraternity who look at this kind of stuff. If you want to say that the folks at Wolff Gun Spring don't know what they are talking about when they discuss gun springs, that is well within your rights. However I would suggest it indicates just how little you know about guns, as Wolff is generally considered one of the top names in the business. But hey, that's all right, you go on trying to convince folks you know more about gun springs than does one of the top manufacturers in the business. Might want to tell most of the custom gun makers about that also, I'm sure they'd like to know they've been wrong all these years.Well, we just have your word on that. You still are not providing us with any solid documentation. Lots of bozos work in businesses but it doesn't mean they know what they are talking about.
