      and a professional one at that, he triple tapped and there was zero sense of fear in his actions; completely professional, didn’t even run.

          If you guys think this was professional, you’ve been watching more movies than the shooter was…he does tons of things wrong.

          The slide probably isn’t coming back far enough to reset the striker so he’s got to do it manually with every shot it looks like. Maybe he’s just pulling the trigger too fast for the silencer rigged maybe he’s limp wristing it…either way I see multiple ftf.
          I wonder if He’s not familiar with the weapon or if the silencer is causing issues. He’s def not a pro…he shot with that witness literally right there. He also shot from a distance. A pro would have gotten as close as possible and would never have used a weapon that malfunctions like that. This kid got lucky that woman wasn’t a dude cuz she could have tackled him… The silencer really helped too. I bet no one heard anything with the sounds of the city. I hear they found empty casings and live rounds.

    tf was up with that gun? Looked like some kind of DIY welrod from the way they kept having to manually cycle it. Maybe silencer and LV ammo? very weird.

      most subsonic ammo won’t fully cycle a slide, reckon that’s all that was happening there

      I may be wrong about this, in fact I probably am but I’m going to say it anyway. But I seem to recall hearing at some point that all silencers are actually homemade they don’t actually sell silencers professionally.

      the video makes it look like it was done by a professional; i bet it was a hit done by a rival instead of person doing it for revenge.

        When Alfredo Cospito kneecapped Roberto Adinolfi, Adinolfi yelled “I know who sent you!” as if they were professionals and he was expecting a hit from a rival. It’s not impossible, but Hollywood has produced enough assassin movies that 1) people know how to pull off a hit and 2) when others see the hit, they think “just like the movies, this guy is a professional”

        He was killed by a rival, for sure. But the rival is his class rivalry, not whatever shadowy cabal of rich people that you are dreaming up.
