I do remeber the episode, and I was thinking about your comment. I can't speak to the model weapon she was using, but that does work with my 45.

Interesting. All my semi-auto pistols will not slide-lock by themselves if there's no empty magazine in them. They can, of course, be locked manually. Unfortunately my collection is limited so I can't speak to Glocks, 1911s of various manufacture, and so on...

I assumed (yeah, I know about "assume") that _most_ semi-autos behaved that way.

I mentioned this to my wife and she reminded me that niether her Ruger or Erma Excam locked back with out the mags.

I now have to do a whole lot more research, and find out what her carry piece is on CSI:NY
