Ok, I had just returned from a rather lengthy run last night before posting...the endorphins must have made me high as hell. So...now in a much more lucid state let me make some sense.
First off, if the weapon is known to be empty...as NDD stated, "Just change mags and let 'er eat".
As CoLawman described, for clearing simple malfunctions (ie., stove pipe malfunctions) Tap Rack Bang is the method I'm describing. Tap Rack Ready is a slight variation taught by our firearms instructors to overcome the tendency for the masses who would believe that they have to shoot, the BANG portion of the drill, just because it's part of the drill.
And, lastly, Razor is correct in interpreting my description of the method for clearing double feed malfuntions. He is also correct in catching the fact that a TAP is not necessary. My mistake...
And Team Sergeant, no, not "Real Combat"...I believe it was "Airsoft Warfare".
Actually, it was Gunsite.
Hollis, the Gonzalez course was for Law Enforcement.
That being said, though the bruises from this beating are fresh and painful, I'm feeling the love.
Team Sergeant, how do you suggest clearing double feed malfuntions if they were to ever occur???
