          I’m not the author or an expert or anything. But I’m fairly sure the joke is about how his license expired and she just made him realize she’s a witness to murder.

              My dude I’m not going to explain comedy to you. It isn’t objective or universal. If you don’t find it funny, that’s okay. This comic ain’t for you.

          I read it as he’s performing a press check in preparation for shooting the person next to him.

          Presumably, Bond did a bunch of shooting to get to the point where the comic starts. The gun is potentially dirty enough where failure to feed or extract may be happening. A simple push of the slide back enough to verify that he’s got a live round chambered might save him from having to resort to other methods to silence the other person in the comic.
