Austin_Lewis: That officer did a great service and shot him four times, even though she was shot herself.

Austin_Lewis: JDKJ: It's true, AP ammo isn't available to those oustide LEO/Military fields. The round is smaller than most pistol rounds, but even a pistol round will pierce police soft body armor, especially at close range.
Posted 11/06/09 at 10:12pm
JDKJ: No. Reports from the gunshop are that he purchased the gun but did not purchase any ammunition for it. But I understand that AP ammunition in 5.7 X 28mm isn't readily available to those other than law enforcement and military.

chadachada321: For sure. I can't wait to go to the range again, I'm gonna pay to rent the .460 S&W. >:D do u kno if the shooter used AP round?

JDKJ: @chada: If you're asking me to spend $1000 on a handgun, it ought to be "awesome."
Posted 11/06/09 at 09:56pm
chadachada321: Shot 6-7-ish different types of ammo in 5-6 different guns, ranging from .22 to the freaking .44 Magnum.
Posted 11/06/09 at 09:55pm
chadachada321: Damn. That's an awesome gun. I actually went to a shooting range for the first real time yesterday. =D

JDKJ: No, it uses the very peculiar and expensive 5.7 x 28mm round. That's why it's call the "Five-Seven." It's smaller than a 9mm round, allowing the magazine to hold 20 rounds. And, in some variants, is armour piercing (hence sometimes called "Cop Killers").

magic_taco: Sheesh,Dont FN five-seven use .32acps?
Posted 11/06/09 at 08:20pm
JDKJ: BREAKING: Hasan reportedly armed with FN Five-Seven, legally purchased at Killeen, TX gunshop. For more insight on this weapon, once the subject of a failed federal ban attempt, we turn to GamePolitics' firearm expert Austin Lewis. Dr. Lewis?

magic_taco: Im better though he's going to make an excuse if news stations call him, or if he has CNN,FOX,NBC on his speed dial list.
Posted 11/06/09 at 05:43pm
PHX Corp: @M_T oh you mean Mr garbage man(really wanted to say that because he spews garbage out of his mouth on TV stations willing to get more money)
Posted 11/06/09 at 04:34pm
magic_taco: Im betting JT has his face glued to the TV right now.

ZippyDSMlee: what about casaul linkage between mass shooting and gun owners :Phip?
Posted 11/06/09 at 01:56pm
JDKJ: Sooner or later, the causal connection between every mass shooting and video games becomes clear.
Posted 11/06/09 at 01:54pm
DarkSaber: Well there you go, he wouldn't have been injured if not for vidja gayms
Posted 11/06/09 at 01:40pm
JDKJ: From an interview of a Ms. Johnson which just aired on HLN, it appears her son, Justin, who was injured but not critically so, was playing a video game in the Readiness Center when the shooting commenced.

wehrgeist: @A_L yeah.
Posted 11/06/09 at 01:34pm
Austin_Lewis: Does anyone else find the Orlando mayor's nickname an interesting reminder of Bud Dwyer?
