I'm guessing Brown had the slide a bit out of battery.



That's some scary shit to think about.

So if he had a striker fired piston the gentle giants would had finally ripped it from the officer racked the slide and shot the officer?

Really?

Clear your Glock, and pull the slide back about 1/4". Take note of the position of the barrel. It should visibly drop a little. Pull the trigger, and the striker will still release, but it may or may not make good contact with the primer in that position. Release the slide, and the trigger is still dead.

With a DAO or DA/SA gun, you can keep trying without doing anything to re-cock the gun.

The pic is buried in the riot thread. It was a Sig P226/P229 in .40.

If it was an ammunition issue and it was a Glock, there wouldn't be rioting in the streets right now.

I love my Glocks and am carrying one on duty right now.

But yeah, it won't fire with the slide pushed back.

Most guns won't, but at least Glock has a short reset when the slide is pushed out of battery.

Out of battery due to the bad guy pressing against the muzzle? You WANT your gun to fire out of battery?

Oh, wait. You're talking about the Glock Grenade option. Blow the bad guy up!  I SEE NOW!

Grab the cylinder on a revolver, if it can't turn they cant shoot you.

Well, you might be able force a Glock slide into battery (assuming use of both hands) and get a shot off--even with the bad guy leaning on the gun.  Obviously the slide would not cycle in this situation because you'd be holding it shut.  This has even been taught in some classes.  Not sure how it would go with a hammer fired gun like a classic Sig.  

I'll take Glock for the win here.

Interesting.

I do have one DA/SA pistol - a sig P226.
Had a beretta before that , I will always have at least one pistol like this just to maintain familiarity with that type of action.

When you pull the trigger, it doesn't fire, and you can pull it again without having to rack the slide.

Though this thread will go on and on, the first guy to say his slide was out of battery already solved the mystery.

If a revolver is gripped in such a way that the cylinder can not turn it will not fire in double action mode.

Yes, you can also get something between the hammer and the frame in single action. I contend both of those things are much more difficult to do than push a semi auto out of battery.
