    My thoughts exactly.

    First solution might look over engineered (in not qualified to decide as I’m german) but probably works in a lot of conditions (running, jumping, sudden movements, shaking, like a gun may experience during use in conflicts) whereas the slide maybe only works when the sun is shining, the birds are singing and the people are picnicking or such.

      The slide works in all conditions afaik. It’s not gravity fed or something. It’s full of cartridges under presure from the spring, same as any other gun, and rounds are pushed into the receiver one by one. IIRC three dummy rounds are tethered to the end of the spring, which allows the spring to push the last few cartridges into the slide and out of the magazine.

      Perfect for a US mass shooting!
