Indeed, the only time I've been told to walk around in "amber status" (clip in weapon, no round chambered and safety ON) is here in Iraq on certain FOBs like the one I'm in that gets hit a lot. There is no reason to walk around relatively safe with the clip in for obvious safety reasons. Plus getting the clip out of the pouch and into the weapon is hardly a lengthy process >.>Chichikov said:Under normal conditions, you don't put a clip in when you're off duty.
It's a safety measure.
