lock and load

(verb expression) Short for locking the magazine/cartridge into the gun and loading the ammunition into the gun's chamber. (Usu. used to show toughness, ambition, fear and other strong characteristics. Originally spoken by John Wayne in "Sands of Iwo Jima" as "load and lock".
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define. ... k and load

So is the above definition incorrect or does "lock" mean different things in different expressions?
It is different term. Lock and load, It is like make ready for an AR.

Most likely he would claim, auto-safety of the trigger blade is on unless the trigger finger is on the blade

You are correct, your friend is fan boy of Glock. I am not. He is uninfmored of historical facts. Smile and keep distance.
