The tragic shooting involving the UnitedHealthcare CEO has left many people asking a technical question: Why was the shooter’s gun malfunctioning? In this video, I break down the mechanics behind the issue and explain the critical error in the shooter’s suppressor setup. Spoiler: it all comes down to the lack of a 'booster', a key component needed for suppressors on semi-auto handguns to function properly. Using a suppressor without a booster turns a semi-auto handgun into a single-shot firearm, forcing the shooter to manually rack the slide after every round. This malfunction was clearly visible in the footage, and I’ll demonstrate exactly how it happens and why testing your gear is non-negotiable.
*Important Note:* Nothing in this video condones or excuses the shooter’s reprehensible actions. This is purely a technical explanation to answer the questions many viewers have asked.
