I watched it and now I’m chilling

      Gun nerds are saying it’s a single shot 45 and that it looks like he might have been collecting the casings when he cycled to the next shot.

      Also some are commenting that the first shot was a disabling shot to the leg allowing for a closer range second kill shot.

        But it’s way harder to hit a leg than a torso. Like, shooting someone in the torso would also disable them for a closer range second kill shot, so I’m assuming the shooter aimed for the torso and hit the leg, then got closer to increase accuracy

          Yeah who knows maybe his a bad shot. But a torso shot first would really kick in adrenaline if it wasn’t a drop dead shot and than the target would be fleeing making it hard. And if you have ever shot a pistol the last thing you want to do is shoot further than maybe 10 feet cuz the accuracy on them is impossible to dial in for your average person.

          When you watch the video he hits the calf. The ceo instantly tried to flee and stumbles to the ground.

                  you said you wont elaborate so i guess you’re not obligated to respond. do you think he just intended to run it manual? if so, it doesn’t look like he’s cycling it very reliably, it looks like it takes a couple tries, and it looks like he pulls the trigger before noticing that it malfunctioned.

        are the cops just wrong about it being 9mm? i don’t know why they would lie about that, it’s really easy to tell by looking at the casings. witnesses said it was really quiet, which means it was subsonic ammo, and 45 is better than 9mm subsonic, but subsonic 9mm still does exist.
