Keep in mind that Mr. Ayoob is an older gentleman, who is used to older firearms which used less advanced materials in their construction.
You don't send the slide home on an empty chamber, you don't slap the cylinder closed on a revolver, you don't smack the case ejector, you don't do all of these things on older pistols because sixty, eighty,a hundred years ago the steel just wasn't as good.
If you're handling a firearm that is older than you, you should do everything Ayoob says.
If you're handling a modern firearm, you should bang it around like a cheap whore and you should make eye contact while you smack it harder every time some fudd tells you to go easy on it.
If a modern firearm breaks, it's the manufacturer's fault, 100%, every time.
If your grampawpaw's world war relic breaks in your hand, it's because you're an incompetent caveman who doesn't know how to treat a lady.
Get it right.
This brand of leftist is so insidious imo because they are basically like "Look, I hate identity politics too.
All I'm asking for is a sensible moderate compromise: socialism."
@kamis4to_o This is how I feel when ppl try to discuss firearms manufacturing with me, I just think they're cool bro I have no idea what the third chinese service rifle was in Mao's age and why it sucked or whatever
"Let me find a picture of this character on images" and fucking AI overview jumps into my lap and whispers major spoilers for my favorite series into my ear.
Fuck, dude.
Repeal the 19th, deport every shitskin, revoke all foreign aid unilaterally, and in 5 years we live in utopia. It really is that simple, it only gets complicated because we pretend any debate or compromise is possible with demons who hate us.
