Re: Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Active Shooter

Google Earth puts it at about 350 yds to the area in front of the stage. Downward angle of approx 45 degrees and a generic 55 gr. 5.56 would only be about four inches low if the rifle was sighted in at 200 yds. Pretty quick and dirty math.

Fox News Link
The guns found included converted, fully automatic AR-15 style assault rifles with high capacity magazines.

Not sure what "converted" means but an interview I saw made it sound like it was a true fully automatic conversion and not a bump-fire. Then again the talking heads may not have known what they were talking about. Caveat lector.
