It was a gun capable of killing many people in a short period of time.
I don't give a flying fuck if the wrong brand name is used. I care less than shit if someone says the wrong layman's term.
Arguing and nitpicking those details tells me a person cares less for the victims than making sure the weapon used is narrowly defined. Yes, those terms matter for legislation, but not on forums, not on Facebook, not to most of us people.
I've seen this across the Internets and it doesn't impress or educate anyone to say in response to "how horrible that all those young people were murdered by a (insert inaccurate layman's term)", to rely "it wasn't a layman's term but an official term".
Too many were killed too fast by a murderous jerk and his gun that could do this.
