Glock G22 40 S&W Gen4 mag. 22 rounds. Put one in the tube for 23. It was stolen, so that's likely the condition it was in at the time of the theft.

First images of the 23-year-old armed man shot and killed by a Milwaukee police officer, whose death sparked riots and unrest in the city, have surfaced. Officials identified the dead man as Sylville K Smith, previously charged with first-degree recklessly endangering safety for his involvement in a shooting last year, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. Both Smith and the officer who shot him are black, according to the Chicago Tribune.
During a press conference Milwaukee mayor Tom Barrett said a photo shows 'without question' Smith had a gun in his hand. Barrett said that Smith had 'more firepower than the officer', and his handgun was loaded with 23 rounds, which he refused to drop when ordered by police.
Milwaukee Police Chief Edward A Flynn said officers wore body cameras as they approached the vehicle, which they found suspicious, and within 20 to 25 seconds Smith, who had a lengthy rap sheet, was dead. He also said that he would like the body cam video to be released as soon as possible, following due process.
According to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, Smith received the two charges following a shooting last year, but the details of that shooting were not immediately clear. The charges were later dismissed. From jail Smith called his girlfriend and asked her to pressure a victim into recanting their previous statement, according to the Journal-Sentinel.

That assumption is wrong. It was a stolen handgun and had 23 live rounds inside.

The world is a better place with this guy gone.
Sorry,but that’s the way I feel.
.
Looks like he heard the cop say “Drop trou!!” instead of “Drop gun!”
Dear Lord.
Explains why Obama didn’t get involved and went golfing.
There is no background check or registration necessary if you take advantage of tbe burglary loophole.
Lots of good questions.
Sylville K Smith is a dead ringer for Trayvon Martin.

Why was he not in jail?!?!
Hey, he could be the presidents son!That could have been Barack Hussein Obama when he was young!
He joins Trayvon Martin as a Darwin Awardee.
THe mayor who allowed arson to happen needs to be impeached. The arsonists should have been shot in the act as well.
His pants appear to be falling down..............
30 years ago you could not make me believe that people would walk around like that.
This is what the scumedia will not show you a gangmember being promoted by them as a church going school boy with a future
Good catch. Never noticed that.
They’re extinct regardless of who wins in November; Hillary won’t touch blacks with a ten foot pole. THAT is why they are desperate; turns out Obama never did buy their gasoline or pay their rents...
