As opposed to the often reported mass shooting with an "assault rifle" in .223/.556., not a 9mm handgun.

Lets also not forget the press reported and ran with the witness account that the shooter was VERY well trained, as he had good form and performed a mag change in just 6 seconds. :shock:

I carry .500 S&W Magnum, because .501 would be an NFA destructive device and require a tax stamp.
