Rookie asked:
I know that in a closed-bolt weapon, the magazine will usually cause the bolt to lock back, making it slightly quicker to reload (since the gun will not have to be charged again). But with an open-bolt gun, will the bolt stay backwards, or is it nessesary to pull the slide backwards after reloading? Or does it vary depending the magazine used? I know that some magazines in closed-bolt weapons will not lock the bolt backwards.
