I don’t know much about the firearm he was using, but I’ve heard conflicting reports that the weapon was some type of bolt action pistol and the gun didn’t jam, but I wouldn’t know for sure. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if it was an individual action or a group/government/crime hit job.
Possibly, but there may not be enough energy to reliably unlock the barrel and you'd have to come up with a spring on your own. No manufacturer or aftermarket vendor would sell one since it'd risk damaging the gun if you fired full power loads through it with a super weak spring.
This makes it seem unlikely to be a properly professional hit since the dude is dumb enough to jam his gun and inscribe his casings.

Shooting subsonic ammo with a suppressor requires to manually cycle, this is most likely what happened.
I imagine this can be solved with a looser slide spring, right?
In theory it should.
Never tried myself.
