20. How to buy 30 rd mags, by anders breivik

virginia mountainman: .. sometimes shooting as few as 15 shots from a 30-round magazine .. Seems like magazine capacity in the conn. shooting was a practically a non-issue.

C'mon readers, you falling for p.t. barnum's trickery? gonna just sit there & let him get away with it? suckers a minute?
.. uh, mtn man, the blurb says 'sometimes' shooting as few as 15 shots, which implies that 'more' often he fired most of the 30 rounds in each clip. So wheee, mtn man thinks he's cornered the clip argument because lanza 'sometimes' only fired 15 rounds.

.. he fired approximately 150 rounds during the shooting spree.
Investigators are aware that frequent reloading is common in violent video games because an experienced player knows never to enter a new building or room without a full magazine so as not to risk running out of bullets. This has led them to speculate privately that this might be a reason that he replaced magazines frequently.

now that latter is something that makes sense. He didn't want to discard bullets, just felt he needed a full clip for each new room, yuck.

va mtn man: Cho, the Virginia Tech shooter used 10 rnd magazines in his shooting spree...Changing magazines take less than a second for experienced shooters.

Maybe cho sometimes didn't fire off all 10 rounds from his, eh?
But anders breivik did have 30 rounders, & he got the record I think, & guess where he got his 30 rd clips?

1,500-page manifesto by Anders Breivik detailed how he used lax U.S. gun laws to help arm himself before killing 76 people in a gun and bomb attack in Norway... Breivik easily acquired high-capacity ammunition magazines from the United States.
The sale or transfer of high-capacity magazines made after 1994 was banned under a federal assault weapons ban that went into effect that year but expired in 2004. Such magazines would be prohibited from manufacture or import if her bill, HR 308, were passed and signed into law.
.. Breivik's manifesto described his purchase of 10 30-round ammunition magazines from a U.S. supplier who mailed the devices to him.. Under a section of his manifesto titled "Rifle/gun accessories purchased," Breivik wrote: "10 x 30 round magazines - .223 cal at 34 USD per mag. Had to buy through a smaller US supplier as most suppliers have export limitations… Total cost: 550 USD."

Breivik wrote that he failed to acquire certain weapons illegally in the CzechRepub. "I have now sent an application for a Ruger Mini-14 semi-auto rifle. It is the most 'army like' rifle allowed in Norway, although it is considered a 'poor man's' AR-15. I envy our European American brothers as gun laws in Europe sucks in comparison."

I'll bet sometimes anders didn't empty each 30 round clip, too.
