Also, even if the magazine is out, there is still one live in the chamber and can still hurt someone.

I came to the comments to say this exact thing. This is actually a leading cause of negligent discharge incidents. People eject the magazine and assume the gun is unloaded, completely forgetting about the round in the chamber. There’s a reason soldiers are trained to actually look into the chamber.

trained to actually look into the chamber.

From the back, mind. I'm sure you know but its an important detail.

You're also allowed to use your friend's iPhone if he's not there to argue.

I remembered being stupid at 18 and owning my first handgun. I was too young and stupid back then and almost got banned from the shooting range because I was shooting sideways like a "gangsta".

There was a off duty LEO that was there that day and offered me some quick lessons on how to handle a gun. It was the best firearms training I have ever had.
