Kewl, I didn't realize that ... I just assumed that if it didn't have thew lever it would be incapable of locking back.CEOofEVIL wrote:Ah, Sorry Gents I should have been clearer. The Nano does have a last round hold open, so the slide does lock back on an empty chamber/mag. Rather what I meant to say is that it doesn't have an external lever to release the slide into battery, so you need to slingshot/power stroke/pull back on it to release it. I too really want a gun that will lock the slide back on empty and I'm glad that the Nano does this, because as a feature you sure can get a lot of utility out of it. Sorry for the confusion!

Re: Beretta Nano 9mm Range Report (first 440 rounds)
I suppose when shrinking guns to these tiny sizes something has to give. Far too often its reliability, or pickyness with ammo. Sometimes its price, I suppose that when it comes down to it losing the locking slide is pretty minor. Although if I were in a combat situation It would be more than a convenience to have the slide open up warning the operator for a new mag. Much nicer than click click.
