When hand-cycling the slide (using live ammo) of a semi-auto pistol - are the results obtained worth anything when trying to determine if gun is feeding & ejecting properly?
For instance, if I can hand-cycle magazine after magazine of ammo (live ammo) reliably through the pistol - does this mean it will function properly when firing? Conversely, if it's jamming - does this mean I need to fix something?
Just curious if hand-cycling is a worthwhile test of functionality.
