Unless it has been illegally modified the AK is semi automatic.

Before perforating him with a couple of hundred rounds, he needs to have every bit of data extracted from his brain with whatever method works the quickest. Drugs. Waterboarding. Electroshock. Propane torch therapy. All of it recorded and then he’s let out the back door “trying to escape” as full-auto magazine upon magazine rips him apart.

He needs to run through the legal system.
Think of all that money we have to spend to do that.
I’m with you.......if there’s no doubt, take him out!

Not unlike the M16/AR15 AK’a were ORIGINALLY full autos. With AR’s, only the trigger mechanism differs from the M16. (auto sear)

So your position is that the people who will call the AK-47 an automatic weapon are going to have this level of expertise rather than just calling it an automatic weapon because it looks scary?

I don’t know what to believe, right now. too many numbers and too much hearsay/guessing going around the media, and the cops aren’t talking hard numbers.

Witness reports talk about “pops” and that people didn’t know what they were at first. Have not seen reports of machine gun style firing, for whatever that may be worth.

Not going to be good news in any event. Pray for the people in El Paso.

“Police said the suspect was taken into custody without incident and no law enforcement fired their weapons.”

Let's all take a breath and use our brains.

How many shooters are captured without firing a shot ?

I just now heard that as a police report.

Certainly the "take down" will become known in time but ....

If I'm a first responder, I'm already keyed and prepared for violence.

Did I walk up on this guy and say "FREEZE" ..... and he did ?


Just color me suspicious.
