In theory you could do the same with a Sig, push the slide back and rotate the takedown lever with your index finger.
In either case, I imagine I could pull the trigger before someone was able to disable the pistol.
I think Leib was thinking about the slide separation problem, which was actually a broken slide issue. This was "fixed" by milling a cutout in the bottom of the slide and mushrooming the head of a pin to engage the cutout. Then if the slide broke during firing, the back half of the slide was captured by the pin, and couldn't come back and hit you in the face.
