This article says he used an M-40.

Other articles said it was an AK-47.

I don’t trust the media.

The weapon he used was an M40 rifle and witnesses report hearing 50 gunshots.

M-40 looks SWEET.

M40? The bolt-action military version of the Remington 700? Or M4, the modern M16 variant?

I’ve got an M-40, and I’m fairly good and fast with it. Rifle shots seem a little fast in the videos for it to be a bolt action USMC sniper rifle.

The M40 is a bolt action rifle used by the USMC and is based on the Remington 700.
