..."absolutely viable"... this is complete bunk in every way.
We took to the range to try it out. Five experienced special warfare operators, all intimately familiar and expert with the M9 pistol.
We loaded up Simunitions rounds (with the Simunitions slides), put the requisite protective gear on, and went at it.
More than 500 attempts, and not one of us was able to get the slide off anyone's pistol. Moreover, we ALL got shot multiple times by sims. AND, even the ONE GUY who was able to get the pistol out of battery and get his hands on his opponent STILL got shot with a sim round in the groin.
So, complete and utter bunk, and anyone who thinks it's viable is just plain wrong.
But I love you guys.
