Nevada is shall issue (NRS 202.3653 – 202.369)

>Nevada is shall issue (NRS 202.3653 – 202.369)
>Nevada is open carry ("free state", no statute prohibiting)
>Nevada is stand your ground (NRS200.120)
>Nevada does not require a background check for private sales (NRS202.254)

So, where were all the heroes with guns? Where were all the good guys that NRA always touts in their editorials? Where were all the responsible citizens who own and carry guns in the free state of Nevada?

It's like, they didn't even matter...

He had a machinegun nest, a regrettably good vantage point and the element of surprise.
There ain't gonna be a whole lot of things somebody with a .45 could achieve against that setup.

Concerts require all ticket holders to be disarmed, so it was a 'Gun Free Zone'.

Also, not possible to return accurate fire with your concealed handgun at those ranges even if you had it on you.

Also, go fuck yourself shareblue.

The shooter was using a fully automatic which have been banned since 1984

>he can't hit a target at 300 yards accurately with a handgun

you aren't real Americans

where was the police to protect us from things like this so we don't need to carry guns?

almonds and such

also wise-manned

You're right. Any reasonable person would've whipped out their CC and started firing through the crowd and towards the hotel windows. Us burgers, right? We should just ban guns altogether so people can't illegally acquire them anymore.

>have guns
>not good with guns

Long guns are allowed to be open carried in Nevada. Sounds like they need to spend more time training and familiarization.

>anti-American, anti-gun fags imagine they could return fire over three-hundred yards with a sidearm and "take out" a shooter at an elevated point, at night, that they couldn't find

>there isn't public land between the concert ground and hotel

Casinos are gun free zones you absolute RETARD

Source?

And don't say because "it sounds like". Bump firing and gatling cranks are easily available to anyone who has some knowledge about firearms and google.

What a stupid country.

>derp
see
Don't be such a cuck next time.

This OP clearly knows nothing about firearms.

or gravity, trajectory

This.

Sorry guys but they were FUCKED

This exactly, unless somebody happened to be carrying a high-powered sniper rifle there is no beating that. Even then compensating for bullet drop and not hitting anybody in your line of fire would be almost impossible

Don't worry, you'll be Russian again soon.

>riding in a tank top
>mfw a squid exists anywhere near me

>Concerts require all ticket holders to be disarmed, so it was a 'Gun Free Zone'.

Yup, one of the guys leaving the area commented to a Fox reporter on how it was a "gun free" zone.

Not that it would have mattered given where this guy was. A handgun is basically useless against a rifle which is shooting down at you from an elevated position some hundreds of yards away. Look at JFK.

>Machine Gun Nest with perfect overlook of concert
>Average Pistol range drops off at roughly 100-200 meters
>Guy was 400 meters away with a rifle that is capable of hitting an area target at 400-500m
They never stood a chance.

Go ahead, teach me. I'd love for you to explain why 400-500yds away with a rifle is just an impossible shot.

...

>where were all the heroes with guns

Running and hiding. Nobody even shot back.

The dude was over 30 floors up in a self-made rifle nest. You're not exactly gonna have a good vantage point.

Most "Good Guy With a Gun" stories are in response to maniacs marching into a cafeteria or a church (as recently happened in Tennessee) with no plan. This guy clearly had a plan.

The equivalent to Paddock is a terrorist meticulously crafting a fertilizer bomb and planting it in a concert venue to kill all the guests.

500 yards away but 32 floors up. it has to do with gravity.

hornady.com/team-hornady/ballistic-calculators/ballistic-resources/external-ballistics

Yes, walk into a concert with a rifle strapped to your back.

Its impossible for a guy with a 45 concealed to shoot a sniper 550 yards away. That is 5+ football fields.

All handgun ammo is limited to around 20-100 yards max, depending on caliber.

So no, even if I was armed and was there, shooting back would just make you a bigger target.

>self-made rifle nest

A hotel room. He just took the guns and ammo upstairs.

>The equivalent to Paddock is a terrorist meticulously crafting a fertilizer bomb

No it is not. Any idiot without a psychiatric committal can legally buy those guns and ammunition in most US states. It requires no research, no real work, no illicit action. He manoeuvred himself and an arsenal of weapons around a major city without any resistance or scrutiny.

Nevermind the fact half of the hotel security was paid off because that's the only way some random faggot is getting 10 guns into a mafia-ran casino hotel.

This. No one but cops are some security are allowed to have guns in most venues, plus Vegas is hardly considered Nevada. It's more of a California extension.

>No it is not. Any idiot without a psychiatric committal can legally buy those guns and ammunition in most US states. It requires no research, no real work, no illicit action. He manoeuvred himself and an arsenal of weapons around a major city without any resistance or scrutiny.

Wrong, automatic weapons are extremely expensive to obtain an highly regulated. Without proper licensing its highly illegal to own even a weapon that could be made automatic.

Automatic weapons range from $10,000 - $20,000 dollars just for the firearm

Surely there was at least ONE GGWAG in the hotel?? Come on' GGWAG! ur rreally droppin the ball

There has been no information released about the firearm. It is far more likely to be a semi-automatic AR pattern rifle than anything else.

>Nevada does not require a background check for private sales
The biggest problem right fucking here. You're going to put people through a fucking obstacle course to get a gun and then allow them to sell it without any fanfare at a fucking garage sale.

Gun control faggots chasing after the wrong laws.

>The biggest problem

It really is not.

this, we need to deregulate rocket launchers in Nevada.

>high-powered sniper rifle

Common rifles like the Whitworth and Enfield in the 1800s had roughly 2x the effective range of his max shots. Now, your average AR-15 variant? 600 yds, effective. A more exotic long arm, scoped and kitted out by your average gun nut? That's not some magic bullet shot.

Spoiler: You're talking to a gun owner. Just one who isn't a retarded NRA fanboy.

The reality is that everyone in that crowd having a rifle wouldn't have stopped those causalities. If anything, there would've been more. The cops have the same equipment or better and, as anyone who has lived in Nevada knows, are literally all over the Vegas strip (i.e. minimal response time).

The literal state of white America.

Damn, I was in Vegas just two weeks ago. Guess I dodged a bullet.

You compensate.

>handgun
>handgun
>handgun

It was the Vegas fucking strip. Everyone there are tourists from out of town.

someone from the next room could easily bust his door down and take him out?

you know what to put in the options field when replying to this thread

Hey so have ISIS claimed credit for this too?

my point wasn't that it would have stopped but that is what you would need to even get close to the velocity needed to reach up 32 floors.

> also a gun owner

>what is a suitcase

Those NRA guys were probably first to run away. They are the biggest pussies I have ever seen.

>A hotel room. He just took the guns and ammo upstairs.
What exactly do you think a rifle nest is bong?

Yea thats all false, every bit of it en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_Goodman

His whore wife who is pretending to be an "independent" has always been an anti gun zionist.....

BTW dumbass all states are open carry per USC and supreme court ruling open is not a threat also lying and twerping about your silly anti gun nonsense is not the heart fo the matter the heart of it is why are you trying to disarm America? BTW Firearms in Nevada were big a lot more so and lot more open for 100 years until the 1970's thats when crime and real not fake shootings started happening. So what your deal user? An FN Mini sound coming over a loud speaker with artificial fake bullet snaps doesn't scare me nor the many chads who didn't get shot.

See?
Deportation worked out well for ya.

You are just made NO SENSE whatsoever, everyone int he crowd having a rifle would have saved lives, because a real gunman isn't attacking an armed crowd, they want to survive....the whole point of a soft target is its soft....The imaginary gunman didn't role up on the Swat facility and start blasting did he?

protective gear is useless if you never fall
>b-but you may fall one day
whatever grandpa

A suitcase pays off security? What did he do with the guns if he gave the suitcase to security?

And what happens in an LV situation when you start firing that fucking thing?
You think the cops are just going to be like "TY for help citizen!"
You will be at their gun points with them screaming for you to drop it!

Automatic gun conversions aren t illegal

The normal person runs away from an aggressor.

This isn't call of duty. Most people are not combat trained and the natural instinct is to run away

He just opened fire on a huge crowd.
you think when you start kicking his door he wont start shooting through it?

Now this is interesting

>32 floors, roughly 128 yards
>ground distance between concert ground in hotel, 300-500 yards
>shooting line, ~326-516 yards

I'm not arguing that gravity, drag and velocity wouldn't all alter the shot trajectory. I'm arguing that the shot is extremely feasible. We're looking at a roughly 23-30 degree shot angle here. You should know most rifles have more than enough muzzle velocity to clear that distance.

>protective gear is useless if you never fall
Spoken like a nobike virgin who's never ridden in cold/wet weather

>the concert was IN the hotel

How about you look at a map?

This. Las Vegas is pozzed as fuck. Nevada would have been red if it wasn't for Vegas.

Oh, but I agree. People who think looser gun laws are going to make things safer are living a pipe dream. If anything they'll increase causalities as first responders have to now assess for the active shooter AND anyone who decided to play hero.

>AND anyone who decided to play hero.
yup which for all they know is one of any number of people involved in the mass shooting people at that moment.

Even experience combat soldiers can get lost in the fog of battle imagine a bunch of cops?
lol Hollllyyyyy shhhhitttt

Fuck it. If you'd redivide America by metropolitan areas like I've propesed before the urban liberals could have their gun control while rural Nevada residents keep their guns. With the current state division you have too much power going to state capitals and major cities.

Are the shills this fucking desperate for attention? If this was a normal shooting where the shooter got fucked the only thing they would be screaming is the usual "Muh guns are bad, we don't need guns".
But because the god damn shooter was stationed up in a fucking building 400 meters away from the actual target they are screaming "Boohoo where were all those lone heros with long range AR-15 with laser rangefinders and 12times scopes" because thats the only way they'll get any replies.
If they cant get a guy with an already illegal automatic rifle, whats the point of even banning anything else?
Also twitter screencap posts autobans when?

>btw

Your point is moot. The fact is that a gun free area where anyone was free to "save the day" resulted in no more, no less causalities than any other areas with stricter gun laws. There was several hundred feet of free range where any law-abiding citizen could've been carrying a rifle. I'm not anti-gun, I'm anti-retarded.

I mean I'm not sure where to begin I'm assuming you've never shot in a firearm in your life. and I will also I assume you know little about gun culture or laws in the US.

First off all CCW and most open carriers have pistols. A 400 to 500 yard shot with a pistol is not possible both accurately and effective range. Furthermore let's say that you are a hundred fifty yards away looking up at the window and let's say you knew exactly which window was coming from sure you can blindly shoot into a dark window when you see muzzle flash but again a pistol at even 50 yards is hard enough to accurately shoot let alone shooting up.

This was all about the advantage of positioning and this guy had all of the advantage.

Contrary to what most people believe even in states with open carry almost no one carries a long rifle with them it's simply not practical. It is also noteworthy to most venues like concerts it is a gun-free zone whether your license or not. I guarantee you there was no one in the area with a rifle at the ready.

Your arguments make little sense. But I digress most people have forgotten what the Second Amendment is for it is not for a private citizen to play police officer it is literally a last resort in checks and balances.

they'd be unironically better if they didnt even had the chance to fight back

ban all guns now

>The cops have the same equipment or better and, as anyone who has lived in Nevada knows, are literally all over the Vegas strip (i.e. minimal response time).
ban all cops, not a single one stopped this
