I was going to comment but there are no words... ???

Did anyone notice on his reload that he racks the slide after the magazine is in place?

That indicates one of two things.

1.  He just ejected a perfectly good round from the chamber and let it fall to the ground. (I believe this is the case)

or

2.  He did his perimeter scan with an empty gun. (don't think this was the case because it didn't look like the slide was being held open.

I'm assuming that in The World According To Tex a good shooting demonstration is worthless unless it includes at least one slide rack.

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

I was taught that way when young Tex was still shooting himself in the leg with a cap gun. It assures that a round is in the chamber.  It is faster than doing a chamber check.

I was more unimpressed that the tactical tubby needs two belts and does the Charlies Angels twirl.  Who was he holding at gun point when he picked up the spent magazine?

I think ol' Tex has been watching too many Saturday Night Live reruns.  He seems to be channeling Dan Aykroyd.

Anyone else expect to see/hear a gunshot ever time he re-holstered?  :D

In the words of Miss Prissy, "Yeeah-usssss."
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg

Why yes. As a mater of fact, I was kinda dissappointed when it didn't happen.  ::)
