It appeared to me that what looked like out of battery was the angle showing the weapon light. "Among a people generally corrupt, liberty cannot long exist." Edmund Burke | |||

Look at the back of the slide while he's wandering around the overturned car. The slide is sitting 1/8 of an inch (or so) rearward compared to usual. When fully in battery, the rear slide plate is flush with both the "bump" on the back of the grip above the beavertail and the protruding knob of the ejector portion of the trigger mechanism housing. | |||

The NY AG's Office investigating the Thruway chase that ended in trooper fatally shooting man stated The driver, James Huber, 38, of North East, Pa., can be seen sitting in his car. He's wearing a ball cap and a tan-colored hoodie. He appears to turn his face away from the trooper while muttering something. State Police Major Carla A. DiRienzo said the trooper fired his gun (Glock 21 G4) after reaching into the man's car as the man put the car into reverse. "Get out! Get out!" Trooper Nigro orders, pointing his gun at Huber. "Go away," Huber replies, quietly. "Get out!" Nigro repeats. "No," Huber says. Huber reaches his right hand down to something around the center console. "Nope," he says. The camera shows Nigro reaching into Huber's vehicle with his left hand to grab the hood on Huber's sweatshirt while holding his gun in his right hand near Huber's head. "Get the...." Nigro says, followed by a sudden flurry of motion and sound. Nigro fires twice and the car lurches backward. Nigro appears to fall on the ground as the car moves in reverse, out of view of the camera. Two other videos show the chase, which began on the Thruway in Brant at about 10:38 a.m. Troopers said that the tan-colored sedan was traveling faster than 100 mph at times. The chase continued to Exit 53, where Huber allegedly struck a state police vehicle and then continued north on Interstate 190 toward downtown. The troopers broke off the chase and then searched for Huber downtown, state police previously said. The two other videos released Wednesday show Nigro driving during the chase. The third showed his encounter with Huber. The facades of buildings along Washington Street can be seen through the windshield of Nigro's vehicle, before he makes a turn onto Eagle Street and quickly exits the vehicle, holding a gun in front of him with both hands. Cary Arnold, a Pennsylvania woman who had a daughter with James Huber, 38, of North East, Pa., 18 years ago, told The Buffalo News on Monday that she believes Huber might have been heading for the Peace Bridge rally in support of Canadian truckers protesting that country's Covid-19 vaccine mandates. ______________________________________________ Life is short.

Geeze. Instead of arriving at the Peace Bridge he ends up at the Rest in Peace ramp. Icarus flew too close to the sun, but at least he flew. | |||

For real? |
Good shoot. Going to see if we can replicate the out of battery with some contact shots and a dummy. Not minority enough! | |||

I watched it at quarter speed and went frame-by-frame riding the space bar last night. It looks out of battery before he ever fires or even makes what could’ve been muzzle contact with the guy.

I've been trying to duplicate this with my G17 Gen 5. If I manually lower the slide very slowly, there is a position of slight resistance immediately proceeding the moment the barrel completely locks with an audible click. While I was unable to cause my slide to rest in this position before completely locking, I suspect a dirty or dry pistol may become hung-up if the slide meets resistance or is pressed firmly against the target when fired. Of note, on my pistol a pull of the trigger will release the striker in this particular out-of-battery scenario. *Update 03-27-2022: Whatever was causing the situation outlined above was corrected with a detail strip and thorough slide cleaning. Here's an illustration of the slide (manually) held in this position before the barrel completely locks with an audible click. This message has been edited. Last edited by: hjs157, | |||
