That little arm on the side of a semi-auto is that a slide catch or release. The guy who owns a local gun store tried to tell me today that by locking the slide open, either by hand or on an empty mag, and then pushing the slide catch/release and letting the slide slam forward that I will ruin the gun. Any gun. He made that clear, any gun at all. Said it ruins the trigger, slide, and slide catch arm.
He said its not a slide release its a slide catch. Why do so many companys call it a release then?
Is this guy full of crap? (I think he is)
