Condition II - Why? (With Video)

[ronaldrwl]

Here is a video where a guy can cycle the slide on a G35 one handed.(I'm sure this has been seen before)

Dang!! I want him on my side!

I imagine he must have some insanely light recoil spring then.

[Elhuero]

The poster of the video claims it's a stock spring.

seems like a silly maneuver to me.

I predict that we'll see it soon in a hollywood blockbuster, then g's and dbags across the country will have lots of ND's trying to copy it.

[Irving]

There is a walk through of how to do it, but the video is 4 minutes long so I'll watch it later.

[Irving]

Just watched the how to video. Basically the guy says, "You do it like this, but I can't explain it." This seems even harder than racking the slide by holding the gun behind you and kicking it with your shoe...but I'm going to try it anyway.

[TFOGGER]

Don't try it with an M&P40 compact....especially if you're 50 and have a bum shoulder.... My mechanic is now useless for at least an hour

note:no live ammo was used, only snap caps, his S&W, my laughter

[Irving]

An M&P40 compact is exactly what I'm going to try it with. Then with my CZ.

Maybe I should swing through a drive through liquor store on my way home first....

I carry it condition 1. I find it much too questionable if condition 2 can be done with accuracy and precision during an intense moment like that
