5.56x41 or 7.62x39 FMJ. No one is saying it was a handgun. In fact one witness reports an "assault type" rifle.
Expect the rifles and any ammo they can fire to be on the ban list, like Monday morning.
I should have inserted “pistol”, I know the rifles can, but it’s surprising that someone would have something that bulky handy in the car (uless they were paying rivals a visit at the time and were interuppted).
