I was not very sympathetic with people who could not cock a Glock until July when I injured my left shoulder. I was unable to push or pull the slide back for several months. DH had to cock it for me before going out.

I finally could do the "Israeli" cocking method which made me feel better, but now am well enough to cock it easily again.

the pistol in strong hand grip(finger off trigger)

Thought this was an interesting comment as we have also had a lot of practice on where to place the index finger on the side of slide, not anywhere around the trigger guard or trigger. All this has to be put into muscle memory.

Hubby taught me to shoot Glocks 17, 19, and 21 before anything else and I have never had a problem with the slide once I learned the "hold the gun close to the chest with the stong hand" method. Now he is having me practice extending the strong arm while holding the slide with the weak hand. It is coming along.

Practice makes permanent and I do a lot of dry firing, trying to do some everyday. There is a technique involved.
