Don't Drop The Slide On An Empty Chamber!! - Avoid Gun Abuse!

[rcurtner]

Yeah I should have said it better. Even when inserting a fresh mag with the slide locked back I don't drop it with the slide lock often. There are some drills where I do. Drills designed specifically to enhance your ability to very quickly bring an empty gun back into an active situation.

I edited my reply. I am guilty of this and did notice a light primer strike.

It's almost as painful to watch as when someone flip-slams the cylinder closed on a revolver.

Bad as that might be, it's nothing compared to wrist-flipping one OPEN.

Yep, both are also hard on the crane.

i am not surprised about the individual leaving brass, but it surprises me the police do..that's good money from recycling that can go towards more range ammo, or targets for them.

i guess the officers have more important things to do
i like it, and make sure i am there each month right after they finish up
takes about an hour to gather up most of it.

there has to be some sort of janitor or custodian (city employee) that goes there to clean the rest rooms, and range area, replace lights, etc, at least i know here, they have such.

oh well, thier loss of money.

take what you can, cash it all in........

If you do stoppage drills, it's going to happen.
