What TR said. MOO, many even picking one of the popular 9mm platforms would do well to validate the functionality while also doing some really explosive or other dynamic movement. (I've had to work with alot of "studs" who limp-wristed a Glock when shooting one-handed.) So-called weak-side (should you have one?) and/or one-handed or close-in to body testing should be done. You can make alot of rounds work when you're making that picture-perfect platform for the gun (and camera) at the range, less stable when the SHTF and you have to
move. Camming action or straight blow-back, if you're gonna bet your life on it, test the hell out of it. And imo that's more than running a couple of boxes of vanilla FMJ from a static position & calling it good.
You've got to
know.
