i don't believe it, i think a professional would have tested the gun and gotten it to operate reliably. it's pretty clean aside from that though.

I'm not gonna elaborate but that isn't how this works.

you said you wont elaborate so i guess you're not obligated to respond. do you think he just intended to run it manual? if so, it doesn't look like he's cycling it very reliably, it looks like it takes a couple tries, and it looks like he pulls the trigger before noticing that it malfunctioned.

Looks like it was possibly a makeshift weapon a la the-doohickey but more sophisticated. Either way he did the job and got away.

Watch the video, he clearly fires one shot then has some trouble with it and loads a second round manually before firing again.
