Not beyond arms length. The fired empty was still in the firing chamber, so the slide was prevented from extracting and reloading a round. The poster trying to float this latest crap is trying to parlay the lack of average readers’ gun knowledge.
Sounds like it was up front and personal to me.
You got a link, I would appreciate it. Thanks.
Actually the empty case wasn’t in the chamber. The chamber was empty.
Assault weapons like George Zimmerman’s Kel-Tec PF-9 are commonly used in these situations because it’s an easily concealed variant of the AK-47 automatic assault weapon. It’s almost as deadly as the 12 gauge pump-action AK-47 assault weapon, which does keep the fired empty in the chamber until the pump is cycled, probably the source of confusion in this discussion. I’m just glad Zimmerman didn’t bayonet poor Trayvon with his military assault weapon.
[Note: I hope displaying a level of knowledge surpassed only by professional journalists impresses our liberal lurkers and trolls, and draws a laugh from real Freepers.]
