I've seen senior NCO's with years of service behind them shoot clearing barrels, one I saw with my own eyes do it ... twice!

He drew his weapon, didnt drop the magazine, pulled the slide to the rear, observed the live round eject, released the slide (chambering another round) and fired into the clearing barrel. The spent casing ejected, the sergeant major pulled the slide to the rear observed the live round eject, released the slide (chambering another round) and fired into the clearing barrel... again. At which time the young Specialist on gate guard duty "received" the pistol from the Sergeant Major.
