I agree most script writers know nothing about firearms so you won't see a pistol lock back on empty. But the main reason for not seeing it is editing as you want everything to match. There are several cameras rolling on one scene and the scene is shot from several POV's so you need it to match at all times. So you will never see the weapon go to slide lock unless it is called for in that scene.
