In this SOB TV video, John McPhee breaks down the concept of the combat reload—or as he calls it, the slide lock reload—and explains why it’s the only reload you need to practice.

John emphasizes the reality of combat: you’re not counting rounds; you know you’re empty when you pull the trigger and the gun doesn’t fire. That’s when the slide lock reload comes into play. He also explains the difference between a slide lock reload, a mag swap, and an admin mag swap, providing clarity on when and why each is used.

Learn how to perfect the three-step reload and train your brain to respond instinctively when your gun runs dry. Whether you’re practicing at the range or preparing for high-stress situations, mastering this technique will keep you fast and efficient under pressure.
