Will you admonish yourself just like you admonished Mr Ross?

JaSin is a rabid right-wing extremist and has only come out since the NZ shooting.

The AR15 is no different to any other centrefire or rimfire semi auto in having a magazine.

The AR15 uses .223 Remington ammo the M16 uses 5.56 Nato ammo. You can use .223 rem ammo in a M16 yet every manufacturer of Ar15 says don't use 5.56 Nato ammo in it because of higher chamber pressures which could damage the Ar15 they all advise sticking to the .223 rem.

High velocity is that more buzzwords from the ignorant?
The .223 rem is middle of the range for velocity I wouldn't call it high velocity or even high powered.

The M16 fires about 750 rounds per minute so yes a 30 round magazine doesn't last very long.

Any rifle is dangerous our second worst mass shooting in Australia was done with a single shot bolt action .22lr which is a type of gun most people think is ok for people to own.

If you can trust someone with a firearm does it really matter what type of gun it is?

I saw the livestream video before it was taken down, he did not modify it to full auto and it didn't have a bumpstock as some media claimed.
The mosque was not full nowhere near 300 people don't believe everything you read in the paper.

You are correct Satanta. Journalists often confuse automatic with semi-automatic as if it were an abbreviation. Likewise, the write of 10 special forces, when referring to the the number of men in the same unit. One man is not a force.

I never said I was an expert - I'm not an expert.
Let's look at one of them:


Winchester Model 70

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winchester_Model_70
Military use
The United States Marine Corps purchased 373 Model 70 rifles in May, 1942. Although the Marine Corps officially used only the M1 Garand and the M1903 Springfield as sniper rifles during the Second World War, "many Winchester Model 70s showed up at training camps and in actual field use during the Pacific campaign."[11] These rifles had 24-inch sporter barrels chambered for .30-06 Springfield. They were serial numbered in the 41000 to 50000 range and were fitted with leaf sights and checkered stocks with steel butt plates, one-inch sling swivels, and leather slings. It has been reported that some of these rifles were equipped with 8X Unertl telescopic sights for limited unofficial use as sniper weapons on Guadalcanal and during the Korean War.

Ah, I remember in 2017, the las vagas mass shooter used a bump fire stocks to convert a semi auto rifle to fire like an auto one.  Is the same modification used?

His semi auto rifles were not fitted with bumpstocks.

He had a Category A license according to the NZ pm he was using Category E firearms which means he wasn't licensed for that type of firearm.

The first innocent victims were killed with a semi auto shotgun which he dropped and left at the front door of the mosque.

One brave man nearly tackled him almost got his hands on him before he was shot numerous times.

He dropped one of his semi auto rifles behind his car and left it there before picking up the other one.
