Wait, I want to make sure I'm not doing something stupid that could damage my weapon or a stores weapon. I'm handling a semi auto, and pull back the slide. Nothing is in the chamber, and the slide stay open. I inspect the chamber, then I'm satified with what I'm looking at and I push the slide release lever and let the slide snap forward. Am I supposed to hold onto the slide??? I have been shooting with people with military and LE training and everyone I know does it.
