Heads up, watch out for bullet setback. Constantly rechambering the same rounds can push the bullet back into the casing slightly and increase pressures, it is generally advised to avoid doing this, but if you must, unload the entire mag and put that one on the bottom, so you aren't just unchambering/rechambering the same 2rnds over and over, thus decreasing the likelihood one will cause a catastrophic failure.
Also, by leaving the serialized lower in the car, it is still useful, as someone could easily break that window and take the regulated part, then overnight a complete slide to their house for ~$300*, including shipping, slap em together, and now they've bypassed a NICs check and got a pretty fucking good deal on a glock if you ignore that whole "getting caught with a stolen gun sucks" hidden cost. It really is more responsible to keep it holstered, it's just that the law forces irresponsibility.
*$300 is the quote for a complete glock slide. If not glock, still no NICs, just more money, like $500ish.
Good call on rotating ammo. But the law says that the lower is the gun and guns aren't allowed in the post office. So that part stays in the car and the rest goes with me. I'm not going to do anything that's going to jeopardize my ability to carry. Getting caught with a gun in a post office is a felony and a felony means not having any guns at all.
Totally understandable, I was just talking about how stealing the lower isn't "useless" as some have described it, since that's the regulated part and the rest can be ordered to the door by a 12yo with mommy's (or any stolen) credit card. And about how the law itself is irresponsible, as the best place for a gun is always its holster (or safe but ykwim.) Totally understandable to do it though since the law makes you, the law just shouldn't make you and talking about that is the only way it'll ever change.
