9mm Smith & Wesson M&P pistol
It appears that a 9mm Smith & Wesson M&P pistol with a 15 round magazine was used in the recent Colorado Springs shooting. They recovered 17 cartridges so at some point the shooter changed magazines.

Re: Where are all the good guys with guns?
Don't play stupid, you know exactly what he's talking about. Nobody needs weapons of war for personal protection or hunting.

Re: Where are all the good guys with guns?
Stop being so pedantic. All these recent mass shootings have used weapons that no citizen has any need of with cartridge counts that are ridiculous. None of these are guns that would be useful for hunting or normal self defense. They would only be useful on the battlefield.

Re: Where are all the good guys with guns?
Again, you are avoiding the obvious destruction these weapons have had on society. The US would be a much better place if 99% of firearms were removed. They have no place in a civilized society.

Re: Where are all the good guys with guns?
The biggest part of the problem is the size of the cartridges. They allow an obscene amount of ammo which again, is not needed in for hunting or self defense but is only good on the battlefield. Why do you defend the right of people to massacre school children, grocery store shoppers or nightclub goers?

Re: Where are all the good guys with guns?
Sorry, I meant clips, having high capacity clips greatly increases the danger to society. There is no need except on the battlefield to have 20, 30+ rounds of ammo in a clip. This only increases the kill rate. Anyhow, you already know this and will not make some sort or other inane argument saying it's your right to have insane amounts of ammo in your clips.
