i know it's an animated gif, but still helpful.

if you put a magazine in, you have to pull the slide back to pull the first round into the chamber.

if you eject the magazine without shooting the chambered round, it will stay in the chamber. a lot of people have died because of this.

watch a couple of gun safety videos on youtube. it's also helpful to watch a video of someone disassembling it (either to demonstrate or clean) also.

guns are actually pretty simple, most people are just intimidated by them and think they are more complex than they actually are.
