A few years ago I got some guys (who didn't normally carry) to open carry their guns after a USPSA match when we went to lunch afterward. Three of them wore their guns (reluctantly) and when I realized they were unloaded and didn't have a charged magazine among them, I did a mental facepalm. I didn't explicitly tell them their guns should be loaded if they're going to carry them and it never occurred to them.
Of all the reasons why that guy's gun has no magazine, none are good!
