Why on God's green earth would you?
Can I? Sure.
Would I want to handicap myself in a life-or-death fight? No way!

There really isn't, but I can see why you would think there would be. To start with, abandon the notion that everybody is rational and fully considers every possible course of action.
If Israeli citizens are carrying empty-chamber in CCW--I don't care whether they do--then it's either for the reason I mentioned (security) or because that's the way someone once told them to carry.
That's not a cruel assessment. How many ex-police love Glocks? A lot, although guys from a certain vintage prefer S&W DA automatics. And we're all familiar with the legions of vets who are utterly convinced of the absolute supremacy of the 1911.
People are the product of their environment and experiences. That doesn't stop when it comes to gun choices.
