Agree. The firing cadence is irregular. Sounds very much like a slide fire setup.
Quote from on line article:
Stephen Paddock lived in a tidy Nevada retirement community where the amenities include golf, tennis and bocce. He was a multimillionaire real-estate investor, recently shipped his 90-year-old mother a walker and liked to travel to Las Vegas to play high-stakes video poker.
Nothing in his background suggests why he would have been on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino with at least 17 guns on Sunday night, raining an unparalleled slaughter upon an outdoor country music festival below.
"I can't even make something up," his bewildered brother, Eric Paddock, told reporters Monday. "There's just nothing."

Chanel 6 is supposed to show his converted full auto weapons.A 50 dollar conversion?
News wants to k ow how he got his hands on so many weapons of war... what a freaking joke. Im sad that this tragedy happened. Im pissed also. But why does tbe media had to put a spin on everything. Obe expert sad that a 5.56 at that range would go through a officers vest and into the next officer. One channel says we need restrictions on how many weapons a person can own. Ban sniper type rifles and limit ammo on hand......

If you put on your tin foil hat for just a moment... Something seems off about the story.
WDSU 6? What time?
false flag! False flag! False flag!
I don't have to imagine. It wouldn't have been that different.
When I read that earlier today all I could think of is she, must have seen Steve Martin in the Jerk

Reference link to what I am talking about not making light about what happened.
I mean come on, Hillery! Is that the best ya can do?
No one would stand around with that kind of massacre going on.

It is similar to the massacre in the book enemies foreign and domestic by Matthew Bracken.
You need extra tinfoil.
In the movie they'll make about it, the real killer will have escaped down the stairwell just before the cops make the explosive entry and find the body of the suspect.
Will the real killer be a CIA agent? Or an ex military madman? Or it was... Bernie Sanders trying to push an anti gun agenda!
Chilling.
"Officer down outside of room 91"??? So much confusion about where the shooter was out. 15th floor I heard a couple of times, "shooting one floor above the 31st"
After all that (Ill listen to it again in the morning) I don't see how he was a lone shooter.

Just read this on USA today website.
I'm so confused.....
Experts say....faster clips?? May have use full auto?? They keep says illegal weapons. How do they know the're illegal? All to say no specific information has been given.
Firearms experts suggest Paddock may have been using easily-accessible modification equipment so he could fire semi-automatic weapons at a faster clip. He may also have been using fully automatic weapons illegally. Authorities had not released information on the specific weapons found inside the hotel room.

The news made mention of a 50 dollar conversion and showed a brief video clip of a slide fire stock.
Not full auto. My bet is still on an AK variant with drum magazine, and maybe slidefire or something similar. Cyclic rates are not consistent enough to be full auto fire.
The clack clack of an AK is something I will never forget....

Finally getting it.. All of those have potential.
In the ending Hillary has already tried to write, the camera will zoom in just over the shoulders of the swat team as they enter and you'll see an AR lying on the ground oozing it's last drop of oil, it's barrel still smoking slightly and the charging handle rattles lightly as though it's trying to cough on its last breath.
Two of the swat guys will turn and look at each other and one will say "It was the gun Jim. Nothing else to blame here. Let's call Hillary and tell her she was right all along."
