Split Thread Akron police shoot unarmed man 60 times

[sarge]

Cops are notorious for inaccurate fire, so a high rate of fire but low accuracy seems to be par for the course.

So far, firing at least 18 rounds plus one magazine exchange within a 7 second window isn't seeming nearly as crazy as Warp12 was pretending.

I’m not a cop, I’m not particularly good with a pistol, but I could do so easily provided I don’t concern myself too much with where the rounds end up.

Gee, in some places, every round discharged from a police officer's firearm has to be accounted for.

Presumably this will be true in the USA as well, probably just a matter of time before the figure is confirmed.

Wrong. Literally no-one here has claimed that!

Ah yes the "I have a reason but no you can't see it, it lives in Canada" that people here accept is entirely different from no reason.

The typo is that he was talking about a Glock 17 but citing stats for a Glock 18, which is a fully automatic handgun. It's safe to say that no police dept. in the United States issues them.

Not exactly the cycle rate for both would be the same as they are the same there are just human limitations that make it lower.

Non-sequitur. Your posted reply bears no relationship to the post you quoted.
