    Do I have good enough OWB guns - yes. Are some good EDC, yes. Do I have enough pocket guns - Js and G42s - yes. Do I need a 32 ACP - Noooo! Stop me. Do I have enough 22 LRs for plinking, tertiary BUG or substitute for the Glocks - yes, Buckmark for steel.

    Ok, what can I buy now - well, I'm saving up for some coin buys - that will save me. If Scotus gets rid of the AWB, then I'm doomed.

    PS - do I need a semi shotgun, tempting but my Winchester 1300 Defender is fine, runs through classes and matches.

    I do the same. Not only is it more convenient, but its safer. My dry fire gun has a barrel block, and is kept in a separate lock box in the room where I practice. No gun that's capable of accepting live ammo ever goes into that room. The only time the barrel block got removed was when I took the gun to adjust the irons, and when zeroed the irons and optic, when I got a slide for a PMO.

    If I ever travel to a "major" match, I'll bring that gun as a spare, but the barrel block will stay in place unless my main gun goes down. So far, I've only shot locals, and I don't bring a spare to those.
