Can we all agree on that a jammed gun can't fire?

[failxontour]

So let me explain this discussion post, in my recent gaming session I got shot by a pistol from point blank. I heard it two times jamming and even have a video backing it up. A jammed gun weather it be a rifle or a pistol shouldn't be able to fire when being triggered. The only way to fire again is to remove the actual bullet or switch out the magazine right in a rl scenario.

But in my particualar case the pistol of my enemy jamemd two times and then actually fired the 3rd time. Which makes no sense!

TL;DR If a gun jams it only can be manually fixed by removing/ switching the clip or bullet.

can we see the video? because that's the way it's supposed to work, you have to manually un-jam it. or maybe it was empty and they dropped a bullet in? or maybe it just glitched a bit?

[DarienKane]

all I see is a bunch of black with a little light every once in a while, then it seems you peek around a corner and someone shoots you in the face. can't really tell much, oh well, sorry you had a bad go of it. maybe your next play will be glitch free.

you can clear the jam by reloading. It can be dont in an instand using hotkeys with bullets

is it supposed to be simulating ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ammo? Multiple hits on the primer to make it go off? But that would only make sence for the double action pistols in the game.

[cpl trout]

yes you can fire a gun when it fails to fire and they dont have jams in game they have failure to fire and thats due to weak hammer strikes on the primer and repeatidly striking the primer with the hammer can cause it to fire so yeah you sure can

[cpl trout]

also as for a revolver what happened was he was using bad ammo so the first 2 rounds didnt go off but the 3rd one did it works in game just like real life

[Pacifist]

It's one of two things, desync which is clearly possible, or he was experienced enough with bad ammo that he was ready with the hotkey to reload. I personally just think its desync since we can't hear the clicking.

I took some screenshots of the video and cranked up the exposure because I thought the same thing. Are revolver would have no problems in this situation but it looks to be a makarov.

Don't use badly damaged ammo.

did you even read the post? or just saw some words and made up your own story?

[cpl trout]

you dont have to do hotkey ammo to fix the revolver simply continuing to pull the trigger will eventually set off a round this is a fact in game and irl

[cpl trout]

also true with any double action pistol

You are wrong and must not have fired a jammed gun before. IRL if say the gun jams depending on what kind it is can play a huge factor. If the bullet jams in the barrel you can still pop another round of possibly but it will just continue to back up or take your hand off. A jammed gun is a real thing and a dangerous thing. Only a fool would keep pulling the trigger.

im a usmc rifle marksmanship coach as a secondary mos you are mixing up a jam (not in the game) along with a squib (also not in the game) with a failure to fire (this is the only thing in the game)

only a fool would lack this understanding of basic firearm stoppages
