I didn't say that it wouldn't 'rack another round', but that it wouldn't lockup completely.

If the weapon is a fraction of an inch out of battery, the internals won't line up well enough for the firearm to discharge.

This can happen in any situation where the slide doesn't have enough energy to fully close, such as if the shooter has a limp wrist or grips the weapon too low on the frame, if the recoil spring is weak, or if the gun is dirty.

I think that he was trying to demonstrate that if you ease the slide forward, instead of letting it drop with full force, then it won't go into battery, and won't actually fire.

If I'm right about what he was doing, then either the slide did lockup correctly, or it was close enough for that particular firearm's internals to line up and allow it to fire.
