    Grampa had some problems seems like, his brother lives not far from me, he says he never knew he had any problems, just talked to him a couple weeks ago and asked how his mom was after hurricaine. I would guess he lost his ass in vegas and took it out on the crowd. Maybe to try to hurt the tourism? Just a thought...people do weird shit when they flip out.

    full auto. fuckin shit man! bad stuff bad idea

    I'm trying to resist the temptation to find others like him and blame them. It's an aberrant act, probably fueled by mental illness and facilitated by access to firepower.

    No shit, i had...key word 'had' an ammo bag for if shit hit the fan, straps ripped out from the weight. Hard to believe he did not raise flags trying to lump that gear. Even if all the rifles were broke down you are talking carts of material.

    And the lady that was warning people in the crowd is just weird, its weirder that us news agencies are reporting on it just foreign agencies

    Thinking whoever sold him that full auto or did the conversion is gonna be in some deep shit pretty soon.

    it would be interesting to see where the weapons originated from.

    converting them isn't the easiest thing to do, frankly I don't know anyone that would even attempt to do this as you catch a federal case almost instantly and assured prison and even attempting to but fucking up a sear could cause you to lose a finger or two

    that rate of fire seems like it had to be heavy weapons though, it's hard for me to believe an ar wouldn't over heat at that rate

    edit, it seems he was using bump stocks

    From the land of goofy regulations about bayonet lugs, flash hiders, thumbholes and stuff: how is that they let bump stocks sail on through? I'd think that they'd plug up that loophole real fast.

    i think he had the bump fire conversion on an AR15. We will see. I don't think a standard AR's gas tube can handle sustained fire on full auto. There was a booth up here at the gun show last year offering that conversion. I think I will pass on that one.

    Getting all that stuff up to the room wouldn't have been anything for him to worry about.... Vegas is built around 8 hr shift changes, with some 4 hr overlaps.... I would imagine he moved the stuff to his room over a least a couple shift changes, or days... He already knew the end game, so he took his time..
    On the strip, in Vegas, if you appear ordinary, everyone is more than happy to assume that you are.... That's what makes it run so well......
    To really understand Vegas and get an insight as to what happens on the strip, you need to drive a taxi there for a few years... it was a fun job, 50-75 a day in tips.... The cab owners greed put more cabs on the street and screwed that up...

    thats the problem when it comes to gun control, liberals don't know shit about guns...if it's black though, it's assault style. According to the old regs my kids .22 is an assault weapon. but even a bump fire will be hard to regulate, it's a stock, not a firearm

    my thoughts as well. I know some will handle it, some wont. But he had to have more than two to fire at that rate. it's not like he was swapping stocks on weapons while shooting. hard to believe no short stroking or failures in general.

    23 weapons and ammo.....most cars wouldn't even be able to handle that much cargo. he had to make multiple trips a day to his home to get all that. and it's kind of hard to believe their security wouldn't have picked up on that....like really hard. busy or not, it's a casino, they are trained for this. and housekeeping didn't notice anything? do you know how hard that is to swallow? Vegas PD said they where pretty well hidden....where? how the fuck do you hide that?

    Vegas baby. Cameras everywhere every minute. Every shitter, every corner, every hallway...every inch of Vegas is under surveillance. Thing is they're looking for cheats, not mass murderers.

    You can stop with the stereotyping of libs or progressive knowledge of firearms. Really pretty much weak sauce. It's the same as mischaracterizing pro 2nd Amendment folks as God fearing bible thumping gun toters looking to shoot up anything that moves. But hey...I guess binary equations are simpler....so....

    it seems he recorded the entire thing and each gun had a bump stock
    not so much actually. hillary clinton, you know the leader of the dems went on about silencers...you know because a suppressor actually silences a gun in movies (i guess you could argue that a suppressed 22 with sub sonic ammo and changing out the buffer might almost qualify but it's still as loud as someone speaking loudly...but any other rifle just doesn't blow your eye drums out, not silenced in any way shape or form, moms demand action are out there with their dumb shit, i can start listing senators with their pictures of guns that shot 30 round clips a second, or the oh supperrrr scccarryy just in time for halloween 'ghost guns', or it's legal to hunt human with 150 round mag (i think im quoting that right), or how a gun show works, semi auto vs full, the former ban (which did nothing, as i said, most 10/22 which is a childs gun fit in that cat)...or fuck just google 2nd amend democrats and you having nothing but ban stories..........literally can go on for days.....upon days with actual citations

    I agree a handful of liberals shoot guns and have some knowledge...a handful, so you should feel special, like a unicorn or something. but as far as politicians, or the dem party in general, or 99% of self id libs...I'll happily lump them into the ignorant as fuck, don't know shit category, how did WAPO put it, gave them PTSD from handling even though kids do it every day

    or the fact that the left is celebrating this, because you know it killed trump supporters

    ill add, hows that drug war going...you libs want to start one on guns now?? makes sense

    for shits and giggles, i thought we have a police force killing us without cause, but we should give up our weapons? or better yet, i guess not a single liberal believes that fucking absurd russia shit anymore do they? or are you saying russians secretly rule us and we should disarm to make it easier for them to conquer us entirely....wouldn't that be the exact reason we have a 2nd amendment? the shit is amusing to say the least.

    your witness

    I'm a liberal and a gun guy. Or used to be.

    The gun laws are retarded because the NRA pays huge bribes to politicians to get laws passed (or not enacted as in nevada) that at the end of the day ensure 100% total access to almost all small arms for most Americans if you are willing to jump through a few hoops. No shit. I went through a phase where I really wanted a full auto machine gun. i researched what i would have to do to get it. It can be done, legally, never mind the clever work arounds that we've all come up with over the years. And never mind getting a full auto illegally. I had a roomate in college whose dad was a judge and had a licence for full auto. He had a full auto uzi. I used to go to his house on breaks and he showed me where his dad kept it, where the key was, pulled it out and showed it off, showed me how to operate it even, and we almost fired it except he said his dad would know and get mad. Had I less respect for the burglary laws I could have stolen that and sold it in 5-6 hours. I had an AK-47 that I got the plans for to convert to full auto, and I had an 80 round drum for it. No joke. You could get 7.62x39MM boxes of NATO rounds for like 2.50 a box. I used to spend all day at the range. I never did the conversion but I know damn well it can be done. This was all years ago and that shit is long gone.

    We don't have gun laws in this country. Not sure how I feel about it. Not sure this is a good time to get political. No law on earth would have stopped that guy. There already is a law against killing people which he obviously gave not one shit about. What makes anybody think he would have cared about some dumb gun law?

    He was a gun enthusiast but I know guys with literally hundreds of guns, and they are not even big time collectors. Some guys have thousands.

    The dude was a total fucking lunatic asshole. Can't legislate that out of the country. Or moderate it off a grow site.

    These were hanging on the wall of my log cabin growing up. I just inherited them from my father. I grew up in a gun culture.

    I openly question anyways judgement or character that would risk decades behind bars for something you could buy cheaper than trying to create less the fact the basic safety or relability. Its not afile adjustment like people think spec in an ak, because thats not how they operate. I know some pretty fucked up guys, all kinds of gun nuts, shit im willing to bet over 3/4ths of the families i know have guns but not a single one would remotely be that stupid

    As far as robbing homes for full autos, well those actually are investigated by feds, not local, not for an hour or two, those guns are looked for until found for a good reason. Prob not best idea

    And im not sure if photos are gun culture. My kids have heen cleaning firearms since theyve been walking, and now moved on to target practice. I rec my first rifle at 13 for my birthday. Best thing to do is teach gun safety as small kids, takes away the mystic and dangers because they know how they operate.

    But its humerous about the nra, yea everyone is on their payroll just so they can sell guns. It cant be the fact that over half the homes in america are armed. I know some with their moral spirituality dont understand hick folk, or people that dont live in the city or burbs thus have to blame the evil nra rather than accept theor a minority opinion

    Those bump stocks imo are crap, yeah you can get "like full auto" but its not the same. ar-15's can handel full auto fire, a simple auto sear trigger is the main difference in a full auto weapon, all other ar-15's sold in gun stores have a block installed that dont allow for a full auto sear trigger assemb to be dropped in. You can legally buy full auto guns but its alot of money, paperwork, extra fingerprint cards and where I live the local sherrif has to sign off and hes not so fast to sign on any one.

    Also on ar and ak's, ak are more of a novility item, everyone wants one, i got a 11" barrel pistol version that is only good for a decent shot every few seconds, the buffer spring is in the top of the main gun just under the top dust cover so they jump up when fired and trying to pull the trigger as fast as you can and shoot something. Your first shot might get the target but the rest will be all over the place. Not a safe gun to rapid fire at all but its a gun that will shoot tru a 8 in pine tree and get the person behind it hidding for cover. Its a nasty gun to be shot with, not much a surgen can do if you get shot with one, the ar's have the buffer spring in a tube located in the stock of the gun which cuts down in the recoil (kick/jump) alot, this makes it so a few burst can be controlled and a target hit at much better accuracy (sorry, dont have spell check) hand guns and shot guns are perefect for home defence, only if say a group of looters show up after a natural desaster for instance does a ar rifle become your best friend. Why say do I have a few ar's and ak's, well its simple, because I can. Its legal. Same with my 37 mm granade/smoke/gas/flare launcher, I can own it. $230 and I took it home with no wait. But if I want to shoot fragmented granades from it, its $200 tax stamp, paperwork, fingerprint cards and a trust set up for someone to get it if I die. Laws are crazy but legal,... dont do it the legal way and get caught, forget about anything but federal time in prison. I keep all my shit legal, concealed carry, all that stuff. Its easy to do and the risk of not doing it the right way is not worth it, just do it the right way and be happy and legal.
