I came across this video several days ago but was hesitant to post it due to the graphic nature.
With all of the posts about whether or not one should carry with a round chambered I think this is a sobering example of what can happen if you have to chamber a round under stress and just how little time you may have to react.
In the video 2 men break into a jewelry store and immediately begin shooting one of the employees, it looks like more of an attack than a robbery. The employee tries to chamber a round before returning fire but he could not accomplish the task.
I don't think there is any way he could have avoided the first shot but if he wasn't fumbling with his gun he may have avoided the follow up shots and perhaps survived.
***Warning, Graphic Video***
