> why did he cycle every shot he hand-loaded the cartridges.  1. he very likely took the gun to a range without a suppressor and tested the low power ammunition to see if it would function correctly. 2. the unexpected additional pressure dissipation factor of the silencer caused the slide to fail to eject by default  3. however, the rounds were obviously low velocity enough that they didn't trigger the gunshot detection systems which the city employs to identify the precise time and location of gunshots. from this alone we can guess that hes probably college educated but has not received any training with weapons platforms in a military context. yes i am sherlock holmes.
