I watched it and now I’m chilling
The CEO was into the mafia for 7 figures and they tried to blackmail him with his Sonic diaper porn fetish and that didn’t work so they sent The Punisher.
the CEO is chilling too
Some depictions of hell make it icy-cold, as a consequence of being so distant from the light and warmth of god.
The dude was a profesional, 100% its was a hit on him
Either a pro or the dude was a vet, like a vet who saw actual combat. He’s def used a gun before, I don’t think some disgruntled rando could walk off that calmly after shooting a guy three times.
If it’s a hitman I’m dying to know what for. This story has the potential to be soooo juicy. Please please please blow the lid off some major racketing shit ceos are in on.
I think he was using a slide lock pistol, with a silencer that’s the closest you can get to a quiet gun.
So, I don't think its a 'slide lock' pistol, and here's why:
I’m pretty sure they don’t exist.
Perhaps you or someone else is aware of modern, magazine fed pistols which intentionally fire to a slide lock state with each shot, but afaik, that only ever happens with a faulty, malfunctioning semi-automatic handgun.
Usually you have to intentionally draw the slide back and then engage a slide lock, for all but the final round in the magazine.
A handgun that is designed, intentionally, to slide lock on each shot, despite having a magazine, seems very silly to me.
It would functionally be a single action, non semi-auto weapon, akin to a single action revolver that requires you to pull the hammer back before each shot.
Only benefit I can think of is that you control when spent casings are ejected… but this guy doesn’t grab his brass, so he’s not making use of that.
Further, having the slide lock to an open position does not make the gunshot any quieter.
How could it?
The gasses and spent casing would eject from the ejection port as the slide moves to the locked back position.
???
Not sure where you got this idea.
What I think is happening actually happening is that he’s using subsonic ammunition in a normal semi-auto handgun, with a threaded barrel and supressor.
Subsonic ammo exists for many common firearm calibers, it usually has a significantly lower grain (less gunpowder).
Benefit of this is that the gunshot is much quieter…
Downside is, depending on your weapon/ammo combination, this may not provide enough actual explosive force in the chamber to actually cycle a semi-auto action, so you have to work the action (in this case, the slide) yourself each time.
(That and your effective range, accuracy and velocity are reduced, but thats usually not a problem for point blank situations like this.)
After watching the extremely low quality video several times, I think this is actually what is occuring.
The slide does not appear to stay locked back after firing, for any of the shots.
For every shot, he has to fully cycle the slide, often multiple times, reaching down toward a pistol whose slide does not appear to be extended.
This behavior is quite commonplace when using subsonic rounds in a modern handgun.
From the size of the gun, it’s so small that it might not even be 9mm.
It could be .38, maybe even .22?
He racks the slide immediately after the first shot so it does appear he’s running a manual action set up (either a manual action gun or just a standard semi auto and working the slide each time).
After the second shot he appears to have some trouble but he calmly fixes it and I can’t tell if he shoots a third time or is satisfied the guy is allready dead.
I don’t know if it was a hit, he had written Deny, Defend and Depose on the shellcasings https://abcnews.go.com/US/man-shot-chest-midtown-manhattan-masked-gunman-large/story?id=116446382
thank you agent 47
*brass swell* Excellent work 47. Now, make your way to the nearest citibike for extraction
where is the footage? i can’t find it
One must appreciate the calmness, discipline, and presence of mind it takes to manage that in a crowded city with a witness right there, even with the gun jamming.
you can tell that that witness was a new yorker the way she just calmly bailed
