I’m curious what slam firing is, and why it’s more effective, thanks.

Slamfire


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

slamfire is a discharge of a firearm occurring as a cartridge is being loaded into the chamber. Some firearms are designed to slamfire, but the term also describes a malfunction of self-loading firearms. Shooters accustomed to firearms requiring trigger activation for discharge may be unprepared for a slamfire discharge.
