Condition 2 - A round is in the chamber and the hammer is down.
Condition 3 - The chamber is empty and hammer down with a charged magazine in the gun.
Condition 4 - The chamber is empty, hammer down and no magazine is in the gun.

Depends on the weapon! 1911's I carry in condition 1, others I carry in condition 0 (glocks,sigs,h&k, or your m&p)
Trigger discipline is a must! Not engaging the trigger with your finger until you are clear of your body. Carrying a handgun without a round in the chamber, you may as well carry a rock

I figured there would be quite a few pepople that picked up on the lingo, lol.

I was figuring the same thing. I agree, trigger discipline is a definite must. Now I just need to figure out a good holster.
