That is correct.  The only time my 9mm has a round in the chamber is when I go to the range or I am carrying.  When I get home I drop the magazine, make sure it is clear, put it on safe and then put the 13 round magazine in don't rack the slide. Then I put it down on the dresser or lock it in the safe.  Later, if I pick it up I make sure it is on safe, drop the mag and rack the slide to make sure it is empty.

If you do it every time you never forget.

Each person has to do what they are comfortable with.  For me, I always keep a round in the chamber of the one gun I am using/carrying at that time.  I set my wife up with a gun and made sure it has a round in the chamber.  Both guns are DAO, so it's not much different than having a revolver.
