Seriously, this rationale I gotta hear.
Gosh I hate to get into the tactical reload discussion but the rule for what to do with an empty magazine if you aren't at slidelock actually is based on logic:

You weren't at slide lock and >chose< to reload. Why on earth would you look at the magazine at all. (The bad guys are elsewhere.)

Of course the early tactical journal discussion ended up pointing out that this rule was part of the set to limit the potential for gaming.
