EDIT #1: I took a lot of the suggestions I've received so far from you guys and tried to make them into something good, so tell me what you think. Any better?
Comments and suggestions are more than welcome. =)
Draw animation, eh, not a fan.
Rest looks good except for one thing. The way the fire resets to idle, why does the arm keep twisting back after every shot. Either have it as one fluent motion, or just get rid of the original twist in the beginning. That's my only complaint towards the execution.
Most of these sequences snap too idle and are way too jerky imo.
the shoot is understandable since it's held with one hand, but it needs less backward movement and more upward movement. See if you can kinda mix those up a bit.
The reload is unique, but it jerks around the screen a bit too much. During the reload (if you can get it to work that is) maybe have the slide locked back, and have him hit the sliderelease as well when going back to idle.
maybe give the ending few frames a bit more movement as well (to keep it from snapping). Adding a bit of a wobble, or resting animation during the last 3 or so frames will help it from speeding around the screen and stoping abruptly when the sequence is done. imo.

Considering the deagle is being held with one hand, I'd like to see more upward recoil.
Good point. I'll work on that now.

Updated video with current progress. Included sounds as well this time around. Tell me if that knockback is a bit too much. I'm still not sure what the right balance is. I got the slide to move, though you really can't see it in the firing animations.
Thanks for all the feedback so far. =D
even for one handed that seems too much O_o oh and the slide isn't moving still D:, seriously man, if you need help with it send me the MDL files of the gun and i'll strip the gun for you
Yeah, I thought it was going back too much. Wanted to be sure, though. Thanks. =P
The slide is moving, it's just that the way the current firing animations are set up, you can't see it too well.

Just element select the slide, detach and add a bone on it.
I know, but it doesn't appear to be that simple. When the slide goes back, the aimpoint/sight is clipping through the gun itself. I'm now starting to think that Valve was just so lazy they didn't even bother fixing this, especially since you don't really see it happen if the animations are timed right. I just feel uneasy about it.
