    Opening bolt before handling rifle.

    How many out there open bolts before handling firearms?
    I recently purchased a used rifle from a Hunting and Fishing store and the store assistant handed me the rifle without opening the bolt. Sure we all know itll be empty, but isnt it just good practice and safe to open and check the chamber? Look at all the youtube videos where shooters check and recheck the firearms while doing review and shooting videos.

    So do you actually do it?
