He was just firing "indiscriminately" until they came for him?

Sad that there are people out there like this.

Fully automatic? Are they sure? Must have been stolen from police/military.

...aren’t fully automatic rifles illegal without a great deal of licensing. I can’t imagine that a criminal would be willing to break the law and acquire one.

Oh, okay then. Did he have the NFA paperwork? Big trouble if not. Oh, dead.

A trained man with a M40A3 could probably kill more people if setup properly.

Paper may be bothersome but gun cost for NFA weapons is pretty high. Well for some of us.

Most police departments don’t use automatic weapons.

Obviously it’s possible to manufacture the parts for making an AR15 full auto. Of course, the other parts aren’t designed for for, so good luck gphaving it not melt on you.

He was set up on a tripod and no one was killed out of 200 rounds? I wonder the amount of time between 1st shot fired and police busting through the door.

A fully automatic rifle is quite hard to use on full auto and accuracy suffers. If setup is done properly, they can be quite accurate.

In this instance, that is unlikely. It is just as unlikely that these were fully automatic rifles.

First I’ve heard of this. Wonder why? Seems like a big deal unless... Unless. Okay now I know why.
