Hmm
so is it a magazine release or a magazine lock
or safety release or a safety lock
was taught at Gunsight that the slingshot method was an Israeli thing. because they didn't have enough of the same types of guns to distribute, and had to use so many different types, that the "slingshot" worked for all.
also don't shoot dry, thats what a tactical reload was for. saving the mag, of course for later and consolidation.
loading mag, loading done with slide forward, hand over slide and "cycle" a round in feeling for lock up, reducing noise, and reasserting if necessary with a "press-check" or a "john wick" one handed press check depending on what the other hand was doing at the time.
If for some reason the slide was locked back (mostly 1911s) never drop the slide without holding the trigger back, to disconnect the sear, so as not to ruin a good trigger job.
