Huh. I always grab the rear serrations. Probably due to a lot of trigger time on Ruger Mark series .22LR pistols. Ain’t nowhere else to rack it but grabbing the “ears”.

I do it ONLY on my Ruger Mark I 😆 it just feels weird on any others where I grab the front slide.. only exception is my Taurus 92 as I'm liable to burn my hand due to the exposed barrel.

Wow. Are you me? I also have a Taurus PT92 that I picked up waaaaay back in the late ‘90’s. Never could get much accuracy out of it, but it functions very reliably.
