Happens all the time, especially with automatic pistols. One of my brothers patrolmen shot himself in the ass w/ a 45 auto in the station while trying to unholster it to put in safety cubicle. Lol
So why can't they leave the chamber empty which would preclude any dumbass mishandling of the firearm?
You can't chamber a round with one hand.
Unfortunately, it would also render their firearm fairly useless.
I stated leave the chamber empty, not the magazine!
Wait, hold up bad guy, let me work the action and chamber a round...
In an airline terminal? If it takes longer than blink of an eye to pull back the slide you should not have a gun, but you miss the point here! The way he was dressed just put a target on him if he had brandished the gun in your scenario?
