Interesting, yes. Safe, definitely not.

GREAT video demonstration of I think what we all have found out for ourselves, at one time or another.

That guys wrist must've been a wreck when he was done, after all of that limp wristed shooting...MINE hurt from here!

I wonder if he ever tested the Kahr P9?
When I sold mine recently, the primary thing I told the buyer was to "hold on to it tight"...if you even thought about letting the pistol flip around at all, it would not cycle properly!

I tried limp wristing both my 9 and 40 (both subcompacts) and I could not get any failure, and both slides locked to the rear when empty... I basically did the same hold as in the video... I can however, get my Taurus 24/7 to fail to eject when limp wristing.
