It isn't feasible to fire the gun. I'd have to either clean the gun at the range (probably frowned on at an indoor one), or go home, clean the gun and go back to the range. And there is usually little to go wrong with simple field stripping of an auto, but some guns do have "quirky" reassembly, e.g., directional recoil springs or having to line up link holes with the slide stop pin. I do make sure the slide cycles smoothly and the firing mechanism operates after finishing. I can hear or feel anything out of the ordinary if I did something wrong.
