The newspaper noted that Officer Jason Bockting, in his documentation of the incident, said when the suspect seemed to hesitate, "Merrell racked the slide on his gun to load a round in the chamber."

Yikes! What if he had actually needed to fire his weapon quickly?

I have read on this forum several times where people say they don't feel comfortable carrying a handgun with one in the chamber. Maybe that is the case of this fellow also. AT LEAST he had the mindset to realize he needed to make the gun ready to fire once he pulled it. There is no mention of the span of time between the presentation of the firearm vs. when the gun was made ready to fire, other than to say when the suspect seemed to hesitate. (just my two cents)

Loaded, cocked and locked is the only way to carry IMO.

Apparently the BG was preoccupied with his robbery and luckily the GG had the cover of his distraction to ready his weapon. I sure wouldn't want to count on that; if the BG had the gun pulled on him (which is the idea of carrying) he would have been dead.

they recovered an unloaded .380-caliber handgun and $779 cash from the suspect.

The bad guy's gun was unloaded? Seems like a good reason to give up.

Hummmm I didn't catch that; talk about stupid crook!!! OR was it unloaded because someone unloaded it?

But that would be a good reason to give up.

Nah, had to be unloaded because he couldn't afford to buy the ammo for it.

That was probably why he was robbing the store in the first place, so he could defend his ailing grandmother from the bad guys on the street where he lives....
