With this presser, I am finally getting a straight answer as to how long this guy was shooting.Shooting time: 10 minutes
Casualties: 600 +
Casualty Rate: 60/minuteThis means he had to be hitting one person every second for the entire 10 minutes. With changing mags on a AR platform, in semiauto, 30 round mags, a trained operator might get, might, 240 rounds off per minute. In reality, closer to about 160 to 180 per minute. And of note, you do this to a civilian version of an AR, it will fail. Metal fatigue.So there should be at least 600 expended rounds that were accurately placed. Add in all of the spray on the stage and surrounding structures, and the round count goes way up. That is going to be one hell of a pile of brass. And a fire hazard on any cloth. (That is one of the reasons you want to be on the left side of the range, and turn your collar up. Hot brass down your shirt burns like hell. It is also funny when it isn’t you.)The numbers on this tragedy do not add up.

Re:Spec ops comment - pretty much what I texted you the other day.
*no idea why Paddock did not utilize explosives. Why bring them?
For later use by Paddock or an accomplice -- or maybe to be used prior to the slaughter by firearm and, for whatever reason, he had no opportunity to combine them into a bomb, possibly to blow up those jet fuel tanks at which he fired on Sunday.
*police see evidence he planned to survive and escape.
From what I know so far about Paddock, I think that he did have an escape plan. He was the kind of guy who calculate carefully (algorithms for playing those video poker games).
