So it was the sea­son finale for Miami will an excel­lent cliff-hanger. But this isn’t the place to go for a review of the mer­its of the show, but rather crit­i­cism of the foren­sics. So with­out fur­ther delay:

1) From across the street and a few floors up, some­one with either a Glock G18, or more likely a Glock with a full auto mod­i­fi­ca­tion, is able to put mul­ti­ple shots (6 or more) into a prone person’s upper torso, all in just two bursts from an extra high cap magazine.

2) The car­tridges used in #1 above were 40 year old soviet block car­tridges with black pow­der as a propellant.

3) When the car­tridge rolled off the table and it dis­charged due to impact with the ground (let’s allow that to hap­pen for argu­ments sake — it can, it’s just very rare), it man­aged to pro­pel the pro­jec­tile ver­ti­cally with enough veloc­ity to break a light panel out of the ceil­ing. Usually when unsup­ported car­tridges dis­charge, the cas­ing will tear and peal away, result­ing in min­i­mal veloc­ity in the projectile.

4) The fused allow bul­lets can tell the dif­fer­ence (by tem­per­a­ture) between an armored vest and remain intact, ver­sus a “hot” body and frag­ment to become “more lethal”. If that’s true I want a box, please con­tact me so I can pro­vide you with a deliv­ery address so i can do some “foren­sic testing”.

But what’s up with Ryan? How did he and Caine stage that shoot­ing? And who pulled the trig­ger? Heated bul­let proof vest to fool the fused alloy bullets?

We’ll find out in a few months ehh?
