Fortunately for them all, Foxworth, 33, only managed to fire his semiautomatic before being badly wounded by return fire, authorities said.

He stumbled into his bedroom to try to retrieve the assault rifle but never got to it, they said.

What an idiot reporter. The perp could not fire his semi-auto (rifle) without being able to retrieve it. A semi-auto is NOT a revolver. Reporter need a little education.

***A semi-auto is NOT a revolver.***

I beg to differ with you. The British built one on a Webley-Fosbery frame. You can see Sean Connery use it in ZARDOZ.

Also, around 1970, some publishers released a Zane Grey novel, NEVADA. The cover art showed a cowboy pulling and firing to his left, two Colt Navy revolvers. You know he was firing fast as the air was full of ejecting cases. ;-D

It was a semi-automatic revolver.
