I've sometimes observed a slide manipulation method that has me curious. Sometimes, when I see people pull back the slide on a hammer auto to do a safety check or just lock the slide back or whatever, they first manually pull the hammer back, then pull the slide back. I know you don't HAVE to do this, but is there a reason? Does it reduce wear and tension? Is it better for the gun? Is it worse? Does it not matter? Just curious to see how many of you do this and why.
