This video explains the critical technique of properly charging semi-automatic firearms, specifically handguns and AR-15 style rifles. Instructors Eric and Chad emphasize that 'riding the slide' or 'riding the bolt' forward after pulling it to the rear is a common mistake that can lead to feeding malfunctions. They advocate for a decisive pull-and-release action to allow the firearm's mechanics to chamber a round reliably. The video also touches on the proper use of the bolt catch on AR-15s.
