Default Slide lock/release on shield
For some reason I have in my head that the slide lock is not to be used as a slide release on the M&P shield. I see all kinds of videos people using the slide lock as a slide release. Can the lock be used as a slide release?
Thanks
Kiel

Can you? Yes. Should you? Not really.

Good enough for me. I would have liked a slide release but not complaining.
