Living in Europe helps

Carrying a pistol over here is a pain in the butt anyway. Permits everywhere, accounting for every single round of ammunition, unloading and loading the magazines time and time again for safety reasons. It gets boring and irritating very quickly. Not to mention that you'd have to do even more paperwork and a whole lot of explanations when one pulls the trigger anyway. So most in the military don't mind leaving their pistols in the barracks arsenals and just do their daily business without a side arm.

When I did my guard duty at the army base gates, the pistol and uzi magazines had been loaded and unloaded so many times that the ammo was practically useless. Not to mention the quality of the guns and magazines. I was issued an Uzi with a repair tag, it was still on the gun when I left....
