Jesus h. christ.
I wouldn't have believed it unless there was video proof... lol Thats one smart robber right there.
I'd be willing to bet that the vast majority of people would not have a clue.

unfreakinbelievable
I would have been using that liquid soap to make it easier for the gunmen to choke down his own gun after I relieved him of it.

Sounds nice and all, but I think I'd rather just shoot the guy.
IIRC the brothers that stopped one of the school shootings in GA did so, one of them after being shot himself, because the shooter was using a make/model gun they were familiar with and they knew he was empty.
Amal hijaking of TWA Flight 847 in 1985, where Navy Seabee diver Robert Stethem was tortured and murdered.
Notice the FN P-35 Hi Power that the hijacker is waving around the pilot.

It appears to be an empty magazine well in the 2nd picture. Possibly out of battery as well. The hammer's definitely not cocked.

Of course. It's often a matter of simple routine.

The doughnut worker had what, at least 100lbs on that oxygen thief. :confused:
Oh well at least his insides are clean now.

No kidding when all he has to do is hit the slide stop or in the pilot's case thumb the hammer.

Oh man, it would have been so fun to **** that guy up!!! Honestly, he would have been so shocked you could have had some fun with the dude before he even knew what happened.

Sure, it's always fun to fight with an adrenaline filled, armed attacker.
We have no idea why the scumbag had the slide back, but most here do know that it could have been easily brought forward into battery in about a tenth of a second. Its not like he was carrying an airsoft pistol for cripes sake.
If it were me and I saw the slide back, I would probably go for the gun as well. But I surely wouldn't assume that it will be an easy task.
is it slide-locked, or seized? looks like it COULD be back far enough to be locked, but it almost looks like it's just broken.
my other thought is that it's empty, and failing to grasp how auto pistols function, he racked the slide at the employee, for effect... locking the slide back on an empty mag. then, not wanting to draw attention to the fact that the gun did something other than chamber a round, left it, or just didn't even know how to drop the slide.
whatever the case.... i really hope that if i'm ever jacked at gunpoint, it's this ****.

Pretty much. Slide back doesn't always mean "empty", however if I see the magazine follower in the open slide we are going for it.
And as I should be carrying, I'm shooting the guy.
Too bad that couldn't have happened somewhere more gun friendly with someone that was a little gun savvy.

It still happened at work.
We wouldn't want to risk offending some doughy liberal HR manager now would we.

No but violence of action would be your friend if you knew he was holding an empty weapon. He likely would not know that you were aware of the empty state of his pistol.
I suspect the reason he had the slide back was because he had an empty mag in it. I also suspect he didn't know how to release the slide release easily. He was likely using a stolen and unfamiliar gun.
I agree with Steyr, I would just shoot the SOB were I armed. Bastard was bought and paid for. Not being armed, pistol-whipping him up side the temple with his own sidearm sure sounds attractive.

It's called an Immediate Action Drill. It should be routine.

I got it! The jug doesn't contain liquid soap, it contains something else! Is that it?
