Anyone seen the Guns N Ammo commercial showing around Reno?

19 seconds in you have a guy handing a pistol to a woman (presumably a customer)

And then...what???
magazine.jpg

The guy behind the counter hands over a pistol with a magazine in place. The video dissolves into the next 'scene' but you can see the woman operate the slide, hopefully checking that it's clear.

Does this bother anyone else?

Handing over a 1911-pattern with the slide locked back to someone not familiar with 1911's is asking for mechanical trouble down the road. I've always cleared, let the slide close and then hand over the firearm; usually presented upside down.

Out of curiosity...Why is that asking for mechanical trouble?
