The incident, which happened in Turkey and was captured on surveillance video, occurred outside of a phone store, with the suspect aiming the gun – and firing several rounds – at the customers inside.

...Hickok45 goes for a quiet woods walk with a Vepr 12 (VIDEO)
Ole Hick sometimes has to go out and secure his back country hideaway and for one of these “woods walks” he grabbed a Vepr 12 gauge SBS as a strolling companion.
The Molot/Izhmash Vepr-12 is a cousin to the more commonly encountered Saiga semi-auto shotgun and is patterned on Mike Kalashnikov’s AK series. Its heavy, with the receiver based on the thicker RPK style weapons and built like a T-34 tank, making it popular in IPSC and 3 Gun competitions.
Somehow Hick is able to refrain from letting the evil black shorty shotty take possession of his soul.
But just barely.

While yes, you have often seen footage from Edgerton style high-speed motion picture cameras which typically capture images at a rate of 2,000 or 4,000 frames per second, the one used by the Mythbusters was way faster, revealing pressure waves that undulate enough for Adam to go full geek.
You never go full geek.
