Never in my life have I seen a 30 round clip. I've seen 5 and 8 round clips. In fact, a 30 round clip would serve no functional purpose whatsoever on something like the AR-15 platform.

The AR-15 utilizes a box magazine, and while ammunition is sometimes packaged onto 30 round stripper clips, these only serve to assist in rapid reloading of the box magazine with an associated and essential loading tool.

Our illustrious MSM and other experts need to get their terms AND facts straight. :-)

We're all assuming that the one with the 30 shots was the one that killed. And he would have gotten into a second clip.

But I thought I remember the kills were with the Glock. Could be wrong. Memory going...

How many spent shells were found? Thought I remember them saying some kids had multiple shots....like 5 or 6....

The M1Garand is the only gun that I know of that uses a clip and 30 rounds will not fit in the gun. Are these real police? I would hate to have them investigate anything. I have seen some 10 round stripper clips but these are just a holder and the rounds must be removed form the clip to be used as no gun that I know of fires out of a stripper clip.

I thought initial reports stated the Glock and the Sig-Sauer pistols were used in the killing and the Bushmaster was found in the car, unfired.

Shame on you for posting this! We have a group a FReepers who have conclusively proven that none of these weapons was used except maybe the pistols./s

Seized from the suspect’s car in parking lot was a Izhmash Canta-12 12 gauge Shotgun.

That's funny, in the video it looked exactly like an Izhmash Canta-12 12 ga shotgun. What are they trying to pull here? /s

Connecticut State Police Spokesman Lt J. Paul Vance said Friday, January 18, via a press release. Seized inside the school were the following: a Bushmaster .223 caliber-- model XM15-E2S rifle with high capacity 30 round clips

.223 ammunition clips can only hold 10 rounds, not 30.
A State Police Lt. said this?

Also This:

Investigation Progresses:

"As the police probe has progressed, some facts of the case have become clear.

"According to a reliable local law enforcement source, Adam Lanza attempted to destroy all his computer equipment to prevent any tracing of his Internet usage and his electronic correspondence. It is thought that "some or most" of the computer data will be retrieved from the damaged equipment.

"The source confirmed that Lanza used a Bushmaster-brand military-style semiautomatic assault rifle to kill all victims at the school. Lanza also carried two pistols.

"Also, Lanza used a different rifle to kill his mother by firing four shots at her while she was in bed at home, according to the source. Adam Lanza left that rifle at Lanza residence.

"Also, Lanza shot more than 100 rounds and possibly hundreds of rounds of ammunition at the school, according to the source.

"Lanza was not wearing any "body armor" when the school incident occurred.

"A man with a gun who was spotted in the woods near the school on the day of the incident was an off-duty tactical squad police officer from another town, according to the source."

ANY cop or police officer that says 'clip' when he means 'magazine' is NOT a real cop or police officer. Of any single person in this world, a cop or police officer is adamant about distinguishing clips versus mags as an everyday civilian would think of a pitcher vs. a glass.

QUESTION AUTHORITY.

You can be sure they have a list of every spent cartridge found on the school property. They know which firearms were used, but they did not indicate which were used. A bit odd as that additional information would be very informative regarding the ongoing efforts to criminalize self-defense.

“Seized inside the school were the following: a Bushmaster .223 caliber— model XM15-E2S rifle with high capacity 30 round clips”

Um, Mr. College Educated Forensics Idiot, they are referred to as 30 round detachable box MAGAZINES.
