Slide Stop vs Slide Release

Like when you are unloading your gun for instance or when you inadvertently knock the round off the ejector while loading from slide lock, round angles sideways and primer hits the ejector. It happens TDC.

I know it looks cool especially when you immediately draw the gun back into your chest and scan. I did like the finger thumb racking of the slide in the above video. Just takes "cool" to another level.

If I was in the Miliitary or a LEO in Detroit I might join the crowd but I am not and as a civilian in the Canadian context I'll do my best not to harm myself playing IDPA/IPSC with my toys. Your life horizon is longer than mine so you may witness the SHTF scenarios, I don't see it happening 20 years out and beyond that I likely wouldn't know it was happening anyway. LOL If I am wrong well I guess I'll just have to rely on the Wicked Police types to keep the peace. I know that is a sheep attitude but it is the best I can do.

Take Care

Check your facts bob. The ejector cannot interfere with a round being chambered. And if you're getting rounds coming off the extractor during forward motion of the slide then your gun needs parts/work or you need a better gun. I don't know how you load your guns but I don't influence the loading process enough to create such a situation. The round should be retained by the magazine until the projectile has entered the chamber. At which point the slide/breachface and extractor continue to guide said round into the chamber and subsequently into battery. At no point is the round free to flop/bounce/dance/wander in or around the chamber and ejector.
