Bad Gun Handling

I've been watching the BBC TV SciFi program Torchwood. Breda got me hooked with her video clip of one character, Gwen, getting trained with firearms (in Blighty!)

But in one episode I just watched, Gwen's training seems, well, deficient:

As far as I could tell in that episode, Gwen hadn't fired a shot, yet the slide on her pistol is locked back, and she seems completely unaware of it.

Oopsie!

(This is the kind of thing that irks my wife when I notice it.)

UPDATE: And in a related post, Mrs. Borepatch comments on why it takes an American to actually pull a trigger. EXCELLENT piece.
