Agreed. If it did it reliably with any insertion, that would be great ... but imagine the potential problem caused by expecting the slide to go forward, but having it fail in a high-stakes reload. Eyes should be on the threat and the front sight, not having to check on the status of the slide, and the "feel" may be missed in a high-stress situation.It's just not good to have your pistol doing things you didn't tell it to.
