I don't think it jammed, some kind of silencer issue where you have to manual reload. I don't know guns just repeating talk I've heard. So the gunman would have known to manually reload like that...

He likely had an unregistered suppressor, which would lack a part that prevents jams. I've seen people saying he was probably accounting for the possibility of a jam
