Locking the slide in the right place isn't my problem. My dad taught me his old 1911 take down technique which is to loop the left hand into the trigger guard and hold the slide with my left hand. The problem is knocking the slide release lever in or out of place.

Funny enough, I also hit the slide release on a new mag with my left hand. It's just easier in the grip.
