Looks like it may have been a shotgun.  There is no high cap mag attached to the weapon.  They cleared it by pulling back on a bolt on the side, not a charging handle on the rear.

The story has changed a couple of times...   seems an agenda is being pushed here.

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

I read elsewhere it was a Saiga 12 gauge....so an AK shotgun.  Kind of why many thought it was a rifle.

lol can't even get it right. oh well they got what they wanted even if the bushmaster was in the trunk as originally reported they'd still blame it somehow.
"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

I cant figure people out, i hate that people are so willful to be ignorant...for the second time i have had a conversation with a friend/co-worker, who still insist, the rifle was not used, it was left in the trunk....

Fact:  The AR was the primary weapon used....maybe im misunderstanding the direction of this thread, if so i   apologize.

What fact????  Show me the facts that support this?  Everything I have read, and seen is he had 2 handguns in the school, that was all that was recovered in the school...

The chief medical examiner stated they were all shot with a rifle, that enough for me. With all the agencies and people involved in the investigation do people really believe that ALL of them would be in on some kind of conspiracy to peg this on an AR rather than some other weapon??

I would trully yes. I beleive people are told what to say all the time. I read on the Zimmerman case where ABC or NBC hid or changed some evidence that was in his favor, but they edited the tape or recording to favor his guilt. That was on the internet but never reported on the mainstream news. I read a book on the Waco case that the only truly automatic found after the fire was auspiciouly placed on top of some rubble. This book wasn't written by a right wing person it was written by a liberal. Very good book it showed both sides rather than just manipulate opinions.
So yes I for one would. In one of the videos where the medical examiner was making a statement to the press, and you can kind of tell he was coaxed into his answer. I think he turns and says it was the bushmaster wasn't it to the sheriff or one of the deputy's.
So again yes I do most emphatically.

I've read more news articles that state he left the long gun in the trunk and carried the pistols into the school.  Seems like he would have an easier time sneeking them in than a bushmaster.

YES!
I dont think anyone knows the facts.. Its whatever the media wants to put out. I think the law enforcement who spoke on camera about the event were told what to say.. No matter what the facts really are, the anti-gun folks are working it to the best of their abilities to destroy our Rights, Freedoms, and the U.S. Constitution.. Seems like those who took the oath of office dont even understand the oath they took.. Many of them probably dont even know what the Constitution is all about..

You know huntbear, it is irritating me too.  I've read plenty of articles from 'supposedly credible' publishers on this....and they are all over the place with the reporting.  2 handguns and a rifle...then 4 handguns....then 4 handguns and a rifle left in the car....oh, wait it was a shotgun in the car....no, the shotgun was in the school but not used.  50-200 rounds fired....which is it closer too?  150 rounds is quite a spread!  These reporters are hacks.  The only thing convincing me of a rifle is the medical examiner.
