   American capitalists may be waking up to the fact that grinding people to dust for profit while also letting them have all the guns they want might not have been a smart idea

     They had an improvised silencer and possibly used custom loaded ammo. I think they must have rehearsed the entire sequence, with ammo, in advance.

     @RnDanger @Lazarou @gabrielesvelto

     I'm certified to teach advanced shooting courses including combat handgun shooting; here's my $0.02:

     Being able to clear jams quickly is widely taught to shooters beyond beginners, such as peace officers.

     The crime scene photo I saw showed a rejected round, with a damaged bullet (full metal jacket) still in its brass casing. To me that looked like factory ammunition.

     I saw descriptions of words carved into the bullets and casings. I believe those could have caused the gun jams.

     So, to me this doesn't suggest it was a professional hit so much as someone disgruntled and wanting to make a statement.

     That person was prepared. I'm convinced they could have made a firearm from parts if they had to. (I mean, from what I've read it seems like they halfway did)

     @RnDanger @gabrielesvelto they dealt with the gun jamming without panic, it was a professional hit.

     Which means there's more chance they will get away with it and I'm fine with that in this case.
