| Rookie, you are correct that the user must cycle the action before a semi-auto is ready to use. If after you cycle the action and fire several rounds then yes, you can holster the gun without further action, if you are using a Glock or similar gun. NOTE, if the gun you are using has a traditional safety you use it before holstering. If you want, you can "drop" the mag out, cycle the action to extract the LIVE round from the chamber and make the gun "SAFE".
I know that someone in one of your other posts recommended a training class, so do I. Some places offer a discount on gun purchases if you take their safety class. Many classes allow you to fire several different guns so that you get some experience. Be safe. |
