I got the 226 out today and messed with it a bit. With the slide pushed back about 1/4", the trigger went "click, click". With the slide moved back another 1/4", the trigger went limp with little or no sound.

Not for sure, as I was sometimes doing hit and miss on gobs of pages, but seems like I might have seen one of the many people maybe mention Federal shell casing ... ? No mention that I saw of bullet type or THIS inquisitive mind wold have picked up on that. Just guessing probably HST. Depending upon how bad ya wanna know , here's the link. http://graphics8.nytimes.com/newsgraphi ... timony.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

In Wilson's testimony, he said he thinks he saw the second round fired inside the SUV kick up some dirt or dust outside the car.

I think the Sig 229 is somewhat "compact", with a 1/2" shorter barrel than the 226 (same mag capacity).

Ya, I agree, compared to some other mfgrs, those guns are a little light on capacity for their size. The factory mags that came with my (full size) 226 in 9mm hold 15 rounds. But, FWIW, I was able to find a very high quality flush fit magazine for it by Mec-Gar that holds 18 and works great. Go figure.

Unclear here if Wilson ejected a live round or if he ejected an empty case. Failure to cycle due to slide being impaired? In any event, 50% of the bullets did not get to Brown. And 2 that did hit him in the chest, failed to stop.

A good thing that Officer Wilson was not limited to just 10 +1. And that his training ingrained in his brain "blind racking" the slide.
