That report can be right. Assult rifles can't be used for hunting or protection. Only use is for the military or the criminals. What is this gun store owner really up to?

Glad to see that none of the comments say it was the store owner's fault for plopping his store down in the path of the perp's car. Gotta love the name of the dead guy...."K'Raven." Craven.

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/craven
Definition of craven:
1 archaic : defeated, vanquished
2: lacking the least bit of courage : contemptibly fainthearted

Synonyms: chicken, chickenhearted, chicken-livered, cowardly, dastardly, gutless, lily-livered, milk-livered [archaic], poltroon, pusillanimous, recreant, spineless, unheroic, yellow

I am confused. Wasn't the weapon designed to use FMJ in the first place?
