competitive shooter?
It is possible that he just came from an IDPA or IPSC match. You have to stay empty with no mag during the match until you go up to shoot. If you want to mess with your gun, you have to visit a "safe area"...and even then, you cant mess with ammo. I have frequently gotten in my car right after the match and not dealt with the mess of unholsering at the "safe area" before I leave. Many guys compete with their carry guns and I could see this guy just hopping in his ride and forgetting to drop in a mag after the match. Never done it myself...but stranger things could happen.
