Concerning the "Israeli carry method", I trained to use said method back in the 80's. I was a weapons guard for off base shipments while in the Marines and the Regulations called for loaded magazine inserted empty chamber for the M1911A1. I had my own 1911 so I practiced drawing and racking the slide. In a perfect world I could perform the drill very quickly however, if my hand got sweaty all bets were off. Since getting my first CHL in Al I have always carried every handgun with a round in the chamber.
My personal opinion is that carrying with an empty chamber is better than nothing as the presents of a firearm might defuse a situation and the individual might get a round chambered easily. That said, the individual is best off practicing, a lot.
