Active Shooter in Vegas!

[BIAD]

...A prime example is the claim of the use of "bump fire" stocks - there have been various reports of anywhere from
2 to 12 of the rifles being equipped with them, and a major focus at the moment is these novelty stocks.

That is almost entire and utter bullshit. Bump firing weapons is nothing more than a novelty - you can make a lot of
noise if you do it carefully, but you couldn't hit the wall of a barn from the inside.

That fire in the videos was auto fire, pure and simple.
I don't believe for an instant that anyone could hit a target 360 yards away using bump fire. Not even a really big
target an acre in size.

There seems to be a big push on to outlaw bump fire stocks. DO IT dammit, and then shut the hell up and crawl
back into your cave! No serious shooter give a rat's ass if you do, because they are useless for anything other
than making a lot of noise and wasting a lot of ammo with no effect...

Here's an example of what you're saying...

'...The gunman who killed 59 concertgoers in Las Vegas may have modified his semi-automatic rifles
to fire up to 800 rounds per minute and "inflict absolute carnage", officials have said.



Stephen Paddock had two "bump stocks" - devices that allow semi-automatic weapons to fire rapidly
and continuously - in his room on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino on the Strip.

California senator Dianne Feinstein, who has raised concerns over the sale of such accessories, said
on Tuesday that Paddock had modified at least one of his weapons.

She said: "Individuals are able to purchase bump fire stocks for less than $200 (£150) and easily convert
a semi-automatic weapon into a firearm that can shoot between 400 and 800 rounds per minute an
 inflict absolute carnage."
A fully automatic firearm can unleash continuous rounds until the weapon's magazine is empty...'

Notice the change of wording from bipod to tripod.

'...Paddock had amassed an arsenal of at least 42 guns, explosives and several thousand rounds of
ammunition, police said. He used at least 10 suitcases to smuggle the weapons into his room after
checking in on Thursday last week.

Images posted by US media showed automatic weapons attached to tripods lying on the ground of
the hotel room, with scores of bullet casings littering the floor around them...'

My wife commented that would it be deemed odd that a millionaire with many properties around
the United States would ask his brother to help him move to Mesquite instead of just hiring a
removal company.
Unless he wished something that was moving to be unseen by outsiders...?

'...Paddock was a multi-millionaire property investor who liked to gamble, and investigators are puzzled
over what motivated the 64-year-old to launch the attack. Investigations have centred on his recent financial
transactions, after he sent tens of thousands of dollars to someone in the Philippines, where his girlfriend
was at the time of the attack, according to ABC News...'

Also, would a wealthy person go to such great lengths of acquiring explosive material, when his
actions in Las Vegas were purely contained with the use of firearms and ammunition?

'...Officers recovered 19 firearms, explosives and ammo from Paddock's home in Mesquite, Nevada,
hours after discovering 23 guns in his room at the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino.
Several pounds of ammonium nitrate, a chemical used to make explosives, were also discovered in
his car...'

I agree, something has been missed out.
