Hi All,

I love my M9, and it is a pistol I shoot very well with. Often, we will put some blanks in the magazines to train on a failure to eject, or a misfire.

Much as I love the M9, it is quite easy to sweep the safety/decocker onto safe when doing such a drill.

I was thinking "TAP- Magazine" "RACK- Slide" "CHECK- Safety".

Any thoughts on the method to use? What is taught by, say, the US military or LAPD?

Thanks.
