She's as FOS as a Christmas goose. The only small arms weapon I know of that can sustain that rate of fire is an M134 General Electric Gatling Gun aka mini-gun. With the top rate of fire motor it peaks at 6,000 rpm. Most civilians that own an M134 (very few) usually run the 1500 or 3000 rpm motors. I know this because a friend of mine owns an M134. When he's preparing to take it to a full auto shoot he orders his 7.62 from Lake City Ammo Plant by the pallet, not by the box. They deliver it in a truck stacked on pallets.
Secondly saying bump stocks were used in Vegas is pure BS. I own F/A (select fire) weapons, both shoulder fired and crew served belt feds, and I watched all of the film from the Vegas shooting. The shooter was laying down accurate fire (impossible with a bump stock at range). The gun/s being fired were mostly belt fed autos. If there were any bump stocks found they were planted for the purpose of trying to outlaw them.
Third, a bump stock is only for someone too lazy to learn to bump-fire a semi. I can teach any woman or man to bump-fire any semi auto weapon in less than 10 mins.
Am curious what you think, here, given that you own these.
The shooting from the videos of the LV event sounded like an M240 to me. But you would know better, so am asking. Plmk your thoughts, and thank you in advance.
That's exactly what I thought when I watched and heard the shooting. It definitely wasn't 5.56. The sound signature said .30 cal (7.62) to me. So the M240 would be the most likely and easily 7.62 belt fed obtained here in America.

If there are bodies, then I presume we could pretty easily determine the caliber that killed them, assuming not all bullets were pass-throughs.
But yet, we don't have that information. Because we live in Clown Town.
Exactly.
Wait, what? What funny business happened with Vegas victims' bodies / autopsies??
Not like I'd be that shocked, but still...
