Can't make this shit up.

Headline- Man with 'high-powered weapon' in custody

At the Very End of the story-

"Ishii said the gunman was armed with "some sort of assault rifle or a TEC-9-type high-powered or high-capacity weapon."

I think in journalism school, they are taught that anything above a rubber-band shooter would be a "high capacity assault machine gun".

Like a belt or mag fed Nerf Gun?

 

[Ravenworks]

It pisses me off when they throw in that it could be this or that.
How do you guess with a simple fact that is easy to check?
How bad did they screw the rest of it?
I always like when they say, oh so and so was shot to shit and now are at the hospital waiting on thrir Uber so they can be released.

But was it fully semi-automatic?

 

[ArmyJerry]

no idea why the cops were called?

A 4 star general cop, this shit is COSPLAY by dummasses.

Suspect was wearing "military fatigues"
Holy shit that is serious. They'll be banning military surplus next. Can't just let every Tom dick and Harry go round buying them things.

It was a Tec-9 semi-automatic "assault weapon" and high capacity magazine (they are 9 mm and can hold anywhere from 10-50 rds.), according to Channel 7 Las Vegas.

You think cops shouldn’t have been called?

 

[ArmyJerry]

I dsont know it doesnt say why they were called, so my revert is NO , nothing good happens when cops get involved. nothing.

You guys are crazy.

I like where that one witness parked, got out, and "filmed as carefully as possible" instead of, I don't know, getting the fuck out the way and behind cover. I kinda wish he'd taken a round, that'd be worth some instagram likes.

Dude is chasing his girlfriend around in a public place with a gun and you can’t figure it out?

You crack me up,I guess we would be fucked if it was some sort of Ingram or a normal hood tool like a Mac Daddy 10

The 'STG' is far more likely than not, to be a .22 LR semiauto reproduction. Probably stolen too.

Enjoy some affordable plinking with this .22 LR replica of the famous German “Storm Rifle” of World War II.

What did she do to him?

[Loonhunter]

Probably got mad about his ammo purchasing.

Fuck, hole in my phone, right at the most interesting part.

 

[Almonz]

Reminds me of when they call 1000 rounds of 22 LR a stockpile.

 

[Kir]

1K of .22 LR = a good day at the range...

 

[308Gunner]

Yeah about right 1000 for me and a 1000 for my boy

Had a situation here in New Mexico where an indigenous male, aka Indian, shot his family to death with a "high power 22 rifle". Pic from a news copter showed him brandishing a 10/22. At least the moron reporter got the rifle part correct.

What qualifies as a "low power rifle".
