in this animation under the 'ammunition' section it shows the slide separating instantly from the barrel and moving rearward then the barrel moving rearward before the bullet exits the barrel. Is this true for a 1911?

I thought the slide and the barrel maintained a lockup for a very short moment before separation allowing the bullet to exit the barrel before separating?
