Lots of different and valid arguments both ways here but, I am a 68 yr. old man with a high "situational awareness" quotient and avoid at all costs situations where I might get into a scuffle with anyone.
I am not nor have I ever been LEO but I have carried a pistol/revolver for years. Luckily, no altercations yet but I also do my best to avoid situations that might promote them.

I am comfortable without having a magazine disconnect and prefer this way of carry. One less thing to worry about and, if I panic and accidently drop the magazine, I still have one last shot.
