[QUOTE="Danny, post: 1122744, member: 11002"] From the way you sum it up, you're being kind of "gentle" with it. Do not ease the slide forward when chambering a round. Pull it back and let it go. The only time you should ease the slide forward is when it's empty and you want to return the slide to the forward position without a magazine or ammo in it. Especially if it is an aluminum framed gun. But as long as there is ammo present, ready to be chambered, let her rip. The ammo being chambered absorbs the energy. Also, don't ease it back to eject a round. Pull it back like you got a pair. D [/QUOTE]
