I've been having trouble in IDPA lately with the slide not locking back for slide lock reloads. I have looked at my thumb after drawing and it didn't seem to contact the slide lock.
This morning, I took a video. Out of 1 of 9 draws, with 1 round in the magazine, it finally happened. Sure enough, the thumb, on the strong hand, wasn't contacting the slide stop...that is, until recoil and sure enough, when the slide was back, it did.
Mystery solved...now I just have to work on my drawing grip again.
I'm going to try to post the video.
I believe it's .125 regular speed. I had to watch it frame by frame to see it.
