I don't see the recoil. The way he is holding that pistol is well below the barrel, so the recoil should be more pronounced than if he was using the correct grip. I think they are firing another gun off camera and ejecting the rounds between shots. The video has been edited. I think it's a scam.

I don't speak Klingon, but I am pretty sure he is not happy his gun is broken.

I looked for a 24/7 recall and low and behold, 98,000 Brazilian Police guns were recalled and guess what I found:

Looks like it was their video demonstrating the problem.

You just have to ask yourself, is he telling you the truth based on knowledge and experience or spreading internet myths?

My first thought was "huh, shake-to-fire. Cool technology. " But, that musthave been the sleep deprivation rearing it's foggy head.
That clearly would screw up your aim. And, possibly your foot.

Dunno. Still looks a little fishy to me, but can't argue with the recall notice. Wouldn't mind seeing a slo-mo of that vid.

I have to wonder, who was the first person to shake a gun like that to find the problem. The smart Alec in me has to go with the old doctor line.... My gun goes off if you shake it by the bottom of the grip, well don't do that ;-p
