UK Police Commissioner wants round 3 with US Citizenry

I'm in need of some education please. What's wrong with dropping the slide?

Is it just because you're not racking to release it? The video was tabulating lost value

A 1911 pistol was engineered to strip that heavy ass goose egg cartridge from a spring tensioned magazine and forcefully push it into the chamber, while re-establishing a locked breech.

Dropping the slide on this action can cause damage or premature wear to the slide and internals, because the weight and friction of the cartridge is not present to buffer the powerful spring.

I would have no issue dropping the slide of a 9mm 1911, or any other semi-auto chambered in 9mm or 40 S&W, as they have weaker springs.

While I find that response interesting, its the wear & tear on the sear & dis connector that is the issue, not the slide.
You can drop the slide w/o issue as long as you hold the hammer all the way back.
At least this is what John instilled in me long ago
 
This. Modern society had no idea how quickly all the infrastructure would grind to a halt if a few key blue collar workers decide to stay home for a week. Water, sewage, trash, food, electricity, internet, cell, etc. could all "turn off" without the skilled workers. If the truck drivers ever decide to seriously boycott, then how fast would grocery stores run out of food?
Why do you think they have so many non English speaking types / no knowledge of morals or constitution types working those jobs. Especially trucking

Kind of the whole point behind Atlas Shrugged
The evil could exist because the good folks were supporting, working for and enabling their own oppression.

The moment they all just walked away, the FSA turned on itself and collapsed.
And if the cops would just hold true to their oath and not enforce unethical unmoral unconstitutional laws. No one would have it suffer

During qualification for a CCL, I had a cop instructor drop the slide while inspecting my $3K 1911 that Virgil Tripp did a 3lb. trigger on. I couldn't contain the noise I made.

It's like you see their thumb going for the slide release in slow motion and you can't move fast as you think 'NNO-O-o-shit.'
So you just wanted to show off your safe queen. I know no one the uses a 3lb trigger on a 1911 for ccw. So fucking laughable!

I will agree .....I would never CC that like that and I am an old fudd preferring my SW 340 or my 2.5 python . That 3 pounder trigger sounds like an accident in the making imho. to each his own

Who gives a fuck. If you think a 6lb. trigger vs. a 3lb is what prevents you from shooting yourself, both you fags need to give up carrying.

Btw, I carry a Commander now with a 3.5 - 4lb. trigger but when I applied for my CCL in the 90's I qualified with my 1911 I competed with and used for HD. I drew it from a holster like all the other competitors with tuned guns and triggers and no dumbfucks shot themselves.
 
maybe the nazis in UK forgot that the soros sponsored world gov is not in place yet. think they have the authority to punish someone in another country. yea,cameltoe would extradite for such.

re 1911s. shot customized military 1911s in 60s/70s. everybody did in center fire as well as .45 usually. would say triggers were about 3#s. hold hammer back and drop slide was standard procedure. i would never carry a 1911 cocked and locked with a 20# trigger. that is just me. many do. 3# cocked and locked at bedside,in car,on table,standard OWB holster is NP. the grip saftey is always engaged. i wish All HGs had a grip saftey,but,i am a nut on that subject.

20#? May as well carry a stock Glock. My carry sports 3.5#. That’s from WC many years ago.
 
Faggots like you who boringly brags are just gonna be a fag regardless. Time for you to pull it out of your ass and get off the gaming crap and get a life. How about it boomer?
Between the methpipe and all the dicks you suck, you talk like that other cockgobbler Cumala Harris and are all over the map.

The thumb safety is one of the most important features on a handgun for me.

It's like the big toe or a thumb itself. I put a 1911 type TS on both my G19 and Shield.

UK Man Sentenced to Three Years in Prison Over Posts He Made on X​

The UK sentenced a man to three years in prison because of his X posts.
Wayne O’Rourke was sentenced to three years in prison for social media posts he made after three young girls were stabbed to death in Southport.
Last month, a knife attack in Southport in the northwest of England left three young children dead, five others are in critical condition, and two adults were also hurt.

Alice Dasilva Aguiar,9, Bebe King, 6 and Elsie Dot Stancombe, 7, were killed in a knife attack in Southport, England.
The murdered children have now been named by Merseyside Police as nine-year-old Alice Dasilva Aguiar, six-year-old Bebe King, and seven-year-old Elsie Dot Stancombe.
According to AP, a witness described seeing bloodied children running from a community center where a Taylor Swift-themed dance and yoga event for children aged about 6 to 11 was taking place.
Emergency services responded to the scene, and police reported that they had detained a 17-year-old male suspect and seized the weapon. UK law prevents the release of details on the suspect because he is under 18.
Southport residents were livid after authorities tried to downplay the deadly stabbing.

Wayne O’Rourke was arrested for ‘stirring up racial hatred’ on X.
“People of Southport where the f**k are you, get out on the street,” O’Rourke said in a post on X.
