Video Las Vegas Mass Shooting
Youtube ^ | 10/03/17

Posted on 10/03/2017 8:43:58 AM PDT by Enlightened1

Okay Freepers take a listen to this gunfire from this taxi cab driver at Mandalay Bay.

At the very beginning you will hear automatic gun fire at a distance first (between 0 and 4 seconds mark on the video), then up close up (4 second mark) and then again at a distance (6 second mark). It continues between the distance and the close up for the first 6 minutes. This cab driver was at the entrance of Mandalay Bay.

Check out the gunfire up to about 5 minute mark too and tell me if you think there is more than one shooter?

At 14:25

Then apologize.

It is a strobe. Stop letting an agenda get in the way of the obvious.

You can slow down the video to 1/2 or 1/4 speed around the five min mark and clearly see it is a flashing light and not muzzle flash.

“I didn’t think the .223 had the stopping power at 300 yards.”

FYI: All Marines rifle-qual with the M16 - at 500 yds...

Post the info on the confirmation that these are strobes. I haven’t seen that yet. I don’t think anyone is trying to make up anything, rather folks seem to be sorting through often wildly conflicting information in an effort to understand the truth of this event.

Interesting. Several freepers say not that accurate at 300 yds. Guess as many opinions as there are freepers.

Yes I have seen the photo zoom shot of the building with the broken glass, but not a shot of the entire building right after.

Just saying why not?

“I didn’t think the .223 had the stopping power at 300 yards.”

Google says:
https://www.google.com/search?q=.223+maximum+effective+range&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
“Better to think first in terms of mid-range, in the 400- to 600-yard ranges. For this type of shooting the .223 is ideal. In fact, there are shooters doing outstanding work at 1,000 yards with the .223 cartridge. But this is post-graduate stuff.”

In other words, even on a level shot, 300 yards is effective. Shooting down at a relatively steep angle, dropping 300 feet in 300 yards, the velocity at impact will be higher. A beginner would not have much accuracy at that range, but that doesn’t matter with full-auto where no one can be accurate. He just had to point toward the crowd, and he would hit someone most of the time.

You won’t have as much energy to drop the victim immediately, but you’ll wound them and many will die (roughly one in ten did die). His .308 would have a lot more energy and do more damage, but he might not have liked shooting that one for long, it might have overheated more quickly, he might not have wanted to carry that much of the heavier ammo, or he might have had trouble controlling that much power on full auto.

Of course "accurate" is a relative term.

Below are the target we used (still?).

The "A" was used for slow fire at 200 yds (sitting, kneeling, & standing)

The "D" was used for "rapid" fire (10 rds @ 1 min. 200 sitting, 300 prone)

The B-mod was used for 500 yd slow (10 rds @ 10 min - in the prone position).

Accuracy only matters if he was shooting at one specific person. He was shooting at 22,000 people, relative accuracy was not important at all, he was going to hit people.

That IS a strobe.

And it’s not in the same location as the flashes and looks nothing like the flashes.

Nice try.
