Did also Avishai kill Avner?

1.

Radak: He was with Yo'av when he killed him, and consented, so it is as if also he killed him.

2)

Why does it say "Hargu l'Avner"?

1.

Rashi: This is like Es Avner. We find like this - "Ashkah Li Arveni" (Yirmeyah 38:14) is like Ashkah Osi. "Refa Na Lah" (Bamidbar 12:13) is like Refa Osah

3)

Why did he say "ba'Milchamah"?

1.

Radak: Avner killed Asah'el in war, and they killed Avner amidst Shalom. This is like David said "va'Yasem Demei Milchamah b'Shalom" (Melachim I, 2:5).

2.

Malbim: Do not say that they were Go'elei ha'Dam, and were permitted to kill Avner. Avner killed Asah'el in war - this was permitted! 1

Sanhedrin 49a: Yo'av said that he was Go'el ha'Dam for Asah'el, and the Sanhedrin accepted this! Refer to 2:23:4:2*.
