Welcome to DELOC.

In the gun is usually best.

Delaware doesn't care if your handgun is loaded or not, only if it's concealed or not.

There's a federal restriction in school zones, so if you don't have a DE-issued CCDW I'd recommend avoiding those.

Thanks I'm guessing georgetown would have a problem with me then i dont go near the school zones really anyway. Anything else i should know about or be worried about.

This is a common question - When seconds count and adrenaline has reduced your fine motor skills, don't create an extra step for yourself. Unless there's a round in the chamber, you're carrying a lump of metal that may as well be a hammer. Cocked and locked is the way to go, or in the case of glocks/m&p with no external safety - cocked.
