Nothing is obvious. All you have is the bottom half of a body in one image, and the top half in another:
We assume these images make up the body of Paddock. If he was the shooter, has not been established. Has it?

The sheriff looking like he was going to have a nervous breakdown yesterday, the 28 year old survivor of the massacre saying that there was more than one shooter found dead, and now this.
yes. my mistake 100 rounds not 50. Either way it wasn’t a clip.
Belt fed have a lower pitch sound to them. To me its like a “thud” sound. More important the LMG uses a 30 round clip. The shooter was firing 50 rounds at a time. When I first heard it I thought it was an M240 (it might be.) I would say it was an M249. Also, note how long it takes to reload:
___________________________________________________________
Shooter had Surfire magazines. They are 60 and 100 rounds.
The M249 can use *both* magazines and belted ammo.
But no M249 was found.
Reloading time is not a problem if you have multiple firearms loaded.
Maybe he was running a little late making it to the concert. :) Nobody ever claimed that the FBI/CIA hires their spooks based on their intelligence.
How do you know there wasn’t a M249 found? I didn’t see an inventory or photographic evidence of the weapons.
The key to that question is the FBI guy Aaron C Rouse always looking creepy at the Sheriff. He was the section chief in the counterintelligence division of the FBI HQ. Which his job was prevents foreign intelligence agencies from successfully gathering and collecting intelligence.
In other words this attack was a foreign intelligence organized attack on us.
I personally think it was the Saudi's. They own a large part of that hotel. Which would give them special access.
If he was only one guy. that ended up firing maybe two weapons. Why did he have what is the count now 23 weapons?
There was a LOT more people involved or it was a show case of weapons.

Point taken. I have not seen or read any evidence of an M249 being found.
Here is a set of pictures that I found pretty quickly. It shows two different firearms, one with a 100 round Surefire mag and a bumpfire type of stock. The other shows two types of magazines for different calibers and what appears to be brass from at least two and likely three calibers on the floor. If I had the original photo's resolution, I could make a good estimate of the calibers, but this photo is not good enough for me. Maybe someone else has a higher resolution version of this photo?
Sure is a whole lot of brass laying around. /s
There is a graphic photo of the mass killer with blood in his mouth and doing a very convincing job of bleeding out of the back of his head.
If you want to say nothing is obvious, well, yes everything can be faked.
From that viewpoint, how do we know anyone was shot, at all?
As for the person you named being the shooter (I refuse to give him the after death publicity he seemed to crave) Again, anything can be faked, but that level of fakery is so over the top that you can believe anything and everything, so it becomes a nullity.
Sure is a whole lot of brass laying around. /s
Has anyone ever explained how that weapon got on top of his leg?
Also note how skinny he is compared to his other photos.
See how manbearpig might have done it:
Problem is, there are no toe/fingerprints because the dead man wore gloves.
In my opinion the only thing established about Paddock was that his body was dead in the room. The top half you can see a lot of blood at his chest. but they don’t show his right hand or abdomen. Note: No or very little blood on the revolver claimed he used to kill himself.
I would not expect much blood on a revolver used in a suicide with the muzzle in the mouth. The back of the head is blown out; the revolver recoils away from that and, depending on how it was held, the position of the arm or arms, and the original position of the body, usually falls to rest on or a little ways a way from the body. In 7% of the cases, it comes to rest more than a 30 cm from the body, just as shown in the photos.
24% of the time, it stays in the hand.

Careful now. Some in the government fan club here might try that!
Dailymail article has over 40 images, some weapons details:
You didn’t see blood?
I would also like to point out the hand gun that no one seems to have noticed. Top right hand side of image.
So many blank spots, so many holes, so many questions.
Yes, interesting only two photos of two parts of the body.
