Aurora question. number of rounds expended?
« on: July 31, 2012, 10:11:49 AM »
The anti's/liberals are all in an uproar over "high capacity magazines.

I read somewhere that the rifle had a malfunction and jammed.  Was it related to the magazine?  Anyone know how many rounds were loaded in the magazine?  How many expended?  How many "on target"?

Same question in regard to the pistol.

I'm of the opinion that the drum magazines are mostly junk and not reliable anyway.  Am I correct?

Haven't found that out Charlie, but I would like to know myself.  I bet more people were killed with the 870 and buckshot than anything else....

The two Glocks each had 30 round mags.
I too was wondering how many rounds were fired from the rifle before it jammed.
We will likely never know.
