Meanwhile, FBI officials said leftist gunman James Hodgkinson had more than 200 rounds of ammunition at a local storage unit when he attacked Republican lawmakers as they practiced for the annual Congressional baseball game.
Timothy Slater, special agent in charge of the FBI Washington field office, said Hodgkinson, 66, had rented a storage unit in Alexandria started April 16, which he visited more than 43 times between April and June.
Also, Hodgkinson visited the office of Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., in mid-April and emailed Senators Tammy Duckworth and Dick Durbin, D-Ill., sometime between January 2017 and the shooting last week, the FBI said without elaborating.

The media would have a freaking heart attack if they looked in my garage.
200 rounds in the storage box didn’t help him where he needed them.
Fortunately, he was a liberal idiot and DIDN’T take take them to the range, nor to the ball park.
In cahoots with the Illinois senators in addition to Bernie?
I guess to some, 200 rds may as well be the same as every round at the Redstone Arsenal. If they ever came to my house, they’d faint.
At ball-park range, the SKS is a fine rifle. Unless there’s something dreadfully wrong with the particular specimen of SKS, a competent shooter can easily hit man-sized targets ... every time ... out to 200yds.
Funny you should mention Redstone.
I was stationed with the 291st Military Police Company there in 1969.
Having too much ammo is bad.
I have a 1260 round case of Yugo 7.62x54R. Spazzes my back every time I move it.
I have 200 rounds in my desk.I carry heavy caliber in my pants.
Good God. That’s target practice, or plinking in the back yard.
Against an unarmed small group, with any skill at all, he needed
- a 100 year old firearm with an internal magazine holding 5-8 rounds
- cartridges in clips in the same quantity as targets, plus a few
Going to the range, we need:
- Several ARs and 5-10 full, normal-capacity magazines
GOOD LORD. Where did he get his hands on such a stockpile. Has anyone calculated how much money that would have taken? I suspect a foreign entity subsidized this. Nobody has that kind of cash laying around.
SKS 7.62X39
Had one. Plenty accurate. 2-3 groups at 100 yds open sights.
Was The shooter colluding with these people?
I've got a pile of those 200-round battle packs of Hirtenberger 7.62 - both the FAL and G3 seem to like it.
Obviously, Trump was involved.
Do not turn your back on it.
Thats what I tell all the girls. LOL
Bernie’s office and the two senators from Illinois had a special visitor.
The FBI is so corrupt I don’t believe anything they report or say.
