That’s a lie. Anyone familiar with guns knows he had a machine gun up there.

roflwhat?

this is such a silly response I can't even.

he purchased 24 firearms over the course of years. Most were AR types - 14 .223 ar15 patterns but also AR-10s and a .308 bolt action.

you could argue he made them machine-gun like with the c-mags and bump stocks; as the shooting went on his firing came in longer and longer bursts, 90+ rounds - but there were no 'machine guns' in the ATF tax stamp sense.

Just stupid american laws crafted by idiot politicians owned by the gun lobby allowing civilians to approximate a half ass version that's basically only effective for murdering unarmed civilians. A real machine gun is belt or box fed, has changeable barrels, a tripod or bipod with T&E, an AG....

There's literally video of the Mandalay bay shooting. You know how to google shit, right? And yeah, I am a cowboy from the middle of fucking nowhere. I know what I'm talking bout comes to guns.

you don't know a smoothbore from your asshole

WATCH THE VIDEOS AND BE AMAZED: they weren't fucking machine guns, they were propelled to those rates of fire with bumpstocks, you goddamn bellend. that's why prior service people like myself, who have been around machine guns IN REAL FUCKIN LIFE, understand there's no good reason for civilians to have them and devices like crank triggers and bumpstocks that approximate their rate of fire are fucking stupid and evil.

You're a fucking idiot, dude. And see through as hell. You've not done any of that. Larping a character to push an agenda.
