I was listening to the reporter on FOX radio when the firing happened.

If you were listening when it happened, and by your estimate of time between the first and last shots that it happened in about 4 seconds, then I would conceed that it's unlikely reloading could occur

On the range I don't think I could empty my (10 round .45) magazine into a target at 7 yards (getting it on the paper), eject, and pop in a fresh mag in under 6 secs. Under combat stress I would probably take longer. I know some people who I've seen do it (on the range at matches) in under 4 secs, but their performance would not be typical, even on a SWAT team
