Have the houses of Joe Scarborough, Maddow and Olbermann been checked?
If they can’t find this guy, I can see him becoming some kind of folk hero for Chris Rock and his flock.
No doubt a very long receiver and a specially drilled and milled chamber to accept the 5 inch long bullet it shoots, through vests and stuff.
I heard the dude is driving around in an MLRS.
I'll bet he had another vehicle and was off the mountain and long gone before he set the Pick up on fire with a cell phone hooked to an incendiary device.
He may have taken vanishing lessons from Eric Robert Rudolph.
Send in Holder.
Perhaps California should consider a law against psychopath’s having rocket launchers.
Here's a f*****G narrative for them. One dude with a little training has outsmarted 3 states (or more) and 2 countries (US & Mexico) and has every law enforcement person in said states, scared sh*tless? Yeah, I start changing the "narrative" and "optics" too with and get it off the facts of the case (there is a whole lot of wrong all up in this story to go around, so I aint picking sides) but to drop the "...he might have one of those "icky" weapons" is total amateur hour PR.
Just saying...
Really? When I saw this thread I grabbed one of the AP incendiary bullets from the shelf and measured it. Overall length is somewhere between 2 1/4 and 60 mm. (I've had a few, I've got the wrong glasses, light is bad, the rule I'm using is metric/SAE, and I'm too lazy to get the calipers).
Overall round length of the .50 BMG is 5.5 inches, for that round (API). For the expensive match rounds that I bought from Arizona Ammunition for $5 a pop, overall round length is 5 7/8ths inch or so.
Once again, the MSM has NO clue about firearms.

“Five inch long bullets”. I wish these so called journalist would get their terminology correct. It’s a five ( actually closer to five and a half )inch long cartridge. The bullet is over two inches.
WOW! 5 inch bullets! Missile launcher! Is he an NRA member? Probably is. Betcha.
Just a minute, I going to club myself to death so I can’t read any more of this BS.
"Dem soldiers carry M-16 rifles and they might have a few bazookas we're saving for special people."
Apparently, many of us aren’t aware of that kind of talk. According to some individuals, they’re Special Forces, SEALS, Delta Force and everything seen on TV. They are all of that. They’ve done all of that. It’s considered to be cool and funny in some neighborhoods to talk that way. Am I the only one here who has lived in an inner city neighborhood?
Hope he doesn’t have a Solothurn.
Pierre. I'm a friggin cook. Got up early in the AM and had breakfast ready for thousands of GI's before mess call sounded.
And I managed to actually have the round you were talking about near enough to grab without putting on my shoes.
Not just the entire round, but a pulled bullet, as well.
Pierre, I used a cheap Chinee tape rule to make my measurements, and they were much more accurate than your high-drama, anti-firearm screed.
If you ever see me, Pierre, I'll be the guy waving a finger or two at you.
Nothing but love, baby.

This guy is playing them...he torched the truck and bolted in another vehicle he planted there.
Smart money says he’s in Texas, headed for Mexico at a unguarded border crossing.

I suspect he has a few more surprises in the hopper.
