    I thought his gun fired pin ball balls. That would mean that there is no spread, so he wouldn't hit everyone in a cone. Though I imagine it was a bit of luck that no one was standing directly behind Abe, since I cannot imagine his body stopped or even significantly slowed down that heavy a projectile.

      Better angle of the shooting here. Some things I noticed:

      1. First shot misses completely.

      2. Bodyguard tries to block the second shot with a bulletproof briefcase but the shot hits the case and doesn't give a fuck suggesting it has a lot of mass as it completely pushes the briefcase out of the way.

      3. Shot hits Shinzo and comes out the front of him, you can see his suit move when it does and he looks down at the wound before collapsing.

        Holy shit, this all just gets even wilder. Imagine being that guy, doing your job perfectly, and still the guy you're protecting gets fucking assassinated.
