Well, you know the fotty-5 is supposta be a one-shot man-stopper, after all.

You shoot until the threat is neutralized or you run out of bullets. Most people involved in a life or death shooting won’t be able to tell you how many shots they fired. Some people might tend to fire a couple of extra shots just to be on the safe side.

Yes. I know.

Just my thoughts. If threat was neutralized after 1-3 shots then what point is there wasting bullets on this trash? In a firefight ammo and cover are your priorities. How would you know he was alone? Guy was trained as a cop. All that training and experience go through his mind. Panic, adrenaline? Police are taught how to not panic. Seems fishy, but will suspend further speculation until more facts present themselves. Am likely wrong.

You know I agree completely. But victim was a retired cop, and isn’t some average Joe with a gun.
