(Full headline) Pictured: Two of the hostages shot by Islamic extremist during siege at Jewish grocery store, as it emerges one shopper was executed when he grabbed one of terrorist's guns and it JAMMED
excerpt-
One hostage is said to have snatched one of terrorist Amedy Coulibaly's guns in the kosher grocery.
Captive turned the weapon on the extremist - only to find it had been left on a counter because it was jammed
The first pictures of two of the four hostages killed in yesterday's kosher supermarket siege in Paris have emerged.
Yohan Cohen, 22, Yoav Hattab, 21, Philippe Braham, in his forties, and François-Michel Saada, believed to be in his sixties, were the four hostages killed in the attack, French Jewish organisation Crif confirmed.
Pictures of Mr Hattab, a Tunisian, and Mr Cohen can be revealed, 24 hours after the siege came to a climax as armed police raided the Jewish grocery.
All four men were murdered by Islamic terrorist Amedy Coulibaly, including one who is said to have snatched one of the extremist's guns and turned it on the hostage taker - only to find that the weapon had jammed.
The dramatic account was revealed by a survivor who fled the shoot-out as armed police officers and soldiers raided the store yesterday.
Mickael B, as he wishes to be known, was held in the store with his three-year-old son when the fellow hostage suddenly grabbed the weapon which had been left on the counter and tried to fire it at terrorist Amedy Coulibaly.
But, after discovering the gun had been left there because it was malfunctioning, the extremist shot and killed the heroic hostage.

Barrels <20in.
It may be a Mini-14, but in a CQB with hostages involved some police forces use subsonic 22 fired from a Ruger 22 suppressed A/FA.
Penetration can be controlled to avoid hostage injury.
Israelis are using these to knee cap terrorists across the wall to require two to drag one off. Very handy and oh so quiet.
I would like to see a law where all terrorists are embalmed in pigs’ blood and buried in pork lard.
There are not “Extremists”, they were merely doing what their book told them to do.
Thanks for the update.
Probably told her to watch the TV in about a week.
Islam is a war plan. Political Correctness is its facilitator.
I will donate the lard.
A law would be a rallying point, like Gitmo or Abu Ghairab. A rumor would be more powerful, IMO.
Captive turned the weapon on the extremist - only to find it had been left on a counter because it was jammed......................... I guess he never watched “Key Largo”?
Exactly. Good try!
Always take the fight to them. Always.
I thought I’d seen a Mini-14 in one of the video clips. Ruger definitely sold a bunch of them to police departments both here and overseas before the AR platform gained acceptance.
“I’ll bet that on any given day, there are about 20 armed customers shopping in any of our local big-box stores here in Texas.”
Grinning from ear to ear.
(Any room in Texas for an eyetalian-looking Noo Yawker?)
IMHO
Actually the quote from the cartoonist was;
“I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees”
I may be wrong, but I thought he meant ‘death was better than having to be a Muslim 5 times a day kneeling on a prayer rug to a God that is evil.’
When guns are banned, only criminals have guns.
Why are “progressives” pushing so hard for gun control?
I am pretty sure they are Ruger Mini 30 rifles. They shoot the AK round, 7.62x39.

Ah! That would explain the fatter magazines.
Minis also come in 6.8 spc which is fatter than the .223.
