Yeah, it was mentioned on here a few times and I tried it at the range with my G27. Got it to work about 3/5 times... not fool-proof, but handy if you need to do a tactical reload and need extra fractions of a second.

As for getting a GLOCK for a newbie, I agree. I would recommend a .22lr for a newbie. It gets them used to the basic functions of a pistol without having to worry too much about recoil or muzzle blast yet.

I made the mistake once of letting a newbie shoot my G27 and it was just too much gun. I will never make that mistake again... when I take newbies, I let them try a .22lr and the last one used to be anti-gun as brought up by his parents. He loved shooting the 50 rounds of .22lr so much that he went back to the counter to buy another 100 rounds!
