Semi-automatic term. It's the part of the gun that moves quickly back and forth with every fired shot, ejecting the spent case as it moves to the rear and loading a fresh cartidge into the chamber as it moves forward again. On a handgun, it is often the uppermost portion of the gun and the sights are usually fastened to its top. Racking the slide means pulling the slide back to its rearmost position, and then letting it go forward under its own spring tension. Riding the slide means racking the slide incorrectly, allowing your hand to rest upon the slide as it moves forward. Riding the slide is a common cause of malfunctions. 1 - slide release notch 2 - slide release lever

The primary moving section of any automatic gun Most people think of the 'slide' as the top half of a semi-automatic pistol like the Glock. This is correct, but the slide can also be hidden inside a gun, seen most often with assault rifles and SMGs. These slides are inaccessible to the shooter, so a bolt is connected from the slide to the outside of the weapon's body to allow the marksman to manipulate the slide. The slide typically scoops a bullet / BB from the magazine, pushes it in to the breech and launches it.
