Some feel that reaching up with the whole hand and tugging the slide back and then letting it go is a better way to complete a speed reload. Their theory is that pressing down a lever is a fine motor skill that will desert us under stress. I have never heard them explain how a spear hand (lefty) or curled down thumb (righty) is “fine motor.” It’s not as if we’re talking about threading a needle or something. And if pressing a lever that releases the slide is impossible under pressure, how do these theorists expect to press the lever that releases the shot … the lever known as “the trigger”?
