I've seen various reports that he had a Sig P229. If the attacker grabbed the gun when it was fired and held the slide to keep the round from ejecting, then he would have to manually eject to clear the jam. I saw a video on youtube and bearingarms.com but had some language in it. You can google it. It's titled: "Click, Click, BANG: Understanding Why Darren Wilson’s Pistol Did Not Fire".

But I've seen the following video before of self defense against a semi-auto handgun (if unarmed) by grabbing the slide so it doesn't eject the round: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVtXPIjM3jQ Fast forward to the 1:05 mark to see it.

So his gun may not have misfired, but the assailant may have prevented it after the first shot was fired.
