They have told me that the weapon cannot discharge if there is not a round left in the chamber when it is holstered. I don't know enough about guns, though, to verify their statements.
I DO know one thing, though: if you have a weapon with you and are stopped for any reason by police, you best tell them immediately that you're carrying and where the weapon is located. Don't wait for them to find out you have a permit and have to ask you about it.
If the clip is full, but the chamber is empty, there's absolutely 100% no way the gun will fire. Regardless, every gun should be treated like it could fire at any second.
Obviously you tell the police. When I get pulled over in my truck I have my drivers and concealed carry license ready when the cop gets to the window, as well as hands on the steering wheel and dome light on if it's night. That's just common sense.
