One of the handguns looks like it jams every shot.

Good spot, John. Yes- all the slow mo's of this gun - likely only the one shot copied from the Desert Eagle, is a stove-pipe.

G'Day Fella's,

NitroX, this can be a common occurrence on semi-auto pistols, if the operator does'nt create enough resistance. This is commonly referred to as a "Limp Wristed Hold".
What happens is, if the pistols doesn't receive sufficient resistance from the operator, it will act like a single shot.
The pistol needs to be held with a strong hold and enough resistance thru the hand, wrist and elbow, to create enough resistance to hold the pistols frame in place, to allow or make the slide unlock and move all the way to the rear.
If the slide doesn't travel all the way to the rear, it may not have enough return spring pressure and inertia, to travel back forward with enough force, to strip another cartridge from the magazine and chamber it (as can be seen with the Desert Eagle, in this video).
In my experience, the bigger the cartridge is, the more important the above is for reliable functioning.
Thats probably why I refer to 9mm', as Rat Gun's, as this is generally not an issue with them.

Hope that helps

Avagreatweekendeh!
Homer

I just think the film is edited before the gun fully cycles. This over 1000 frames a second.

Could be DD, however I have heard of the limp wrist problem.

For instance, our PM would have that problem and likely even

with a .22 SA.

Limp wrist syndrome was not to uncommon among new shooters, many moons ago when I trained new shooters. Ne

When we transitioned to Glocks with their polymer frames we saw a lot more of it. We had to teach people to lock their wrist and resist the recoil more. Those who seemed to have biggest problem were folks who shot heavy magnum single action revolvers. Experienced shooters. When I got my Big Glock 45 ACP I had problems with it. The guns seemed to flex a lot.

As big and heavy as the Desert Eagle is they are shooting in the video, I don't see limp wrist syndrome being a issue.

G'Day Fella's,

I agree with you DoubleD.
The reason polymer framed pistols seem softer to shoot, is the increased give in the polymer, over steel and Aluminium. This may also increase the chances of a Limp Wrist effect, on smaller calibers?

Also DoubleD, what do you believe caused the failure to feed/chamber the ammo, on the Desert Eagle in the video? I'm not being a smart arse/ass, or trying to trap you, I just assumed it was from a limp wrist effect.

Regards
Homer

That Desert Eagle has gotta be a 50cal because of the way the fired cases come back towards the shooter. I saw one of these in WA many years ago and it did the same thing - the ejected cases whizzed past the shooters face only just missing it, and they went either side of his head - only a matter of time before one hit him. The guy in the video gets a case to the face. The one I saw didn't jam.
