I don't think imho that my questions portrayed me as someone who never touched a gun before but I guess I was wrong.

Yes, you were wrong.
Quote:
1) Once I put the mag in is it ready to fire or do I need to rack or chamber it?
Read the manual, or take a class.
2) Say I have one in the chamber but decide not to shoot. Do I take mag out and then pull slide back to eject the chambered bullet?
Read the manual or take a class
3) If it is brand new do I need to clean it before using?
Being that it is a Glock: No. They fire right out of the box with no maintenance required. Just check the barrel for any obstructions before shooting.
4) How many rounds does it take to break in if any?
Since it is a Glock: None.
5) Is the Glock compatible with many brands/types of rounds such as ones from Walmart?
Good question, not one of the newbie questions that are being talked about in previous responses.
Just avoid non-jacketed bullets.
6) Can I dry fire?
Yes. To your heart's content.
7) When releasing the slide using the slide release is it better to also have a hand on the slide to slowly let it down?
No, this slows down the action and it has less energy to strip off the round off the magazine and cause it to jam (FTF).
