And that was what I meant when I wrote that after some rational though maybe I don't have to firmly rack the slide every time. I'd like to think that my brain can handle the difference between "Oh S***, it clicked instead of bang" and dry firing while doing wall drills
we are talking about mussel memory here and when you short cycle the slide you can't clear the gun of a primer fail or a jam.
Sure when you are in a position to tell the difference its OK bet we are talking under stress and you rely on training; you grab that slide and possibly short cycle it and fail to clear the chamber
You put your seatbelt on every time you sit down in your truck right? You've done it thousands and thousands of times. That action is muscle memory. Do you try and put your seatbelt on every time you sit down at the dinner table?
Just because a gun is in your hand doesn't mean you have to do the same thing the same way every time. When I'm doing wall drills, some of my trigger presses might take two or three seconds. I can assure you that is hardly the time it would take me to press the trigger in a SD shooting situation.
Nobody is impressed by what you can't do. -THJ
And another snap cap bites the dust.
I had...well, had, 2 sets of 5, and apparently, one of the sets has much thinner case rims than the other.
The older ones are still not showing the rims mushrooming and deforming, while the newer set is falling apart.
