October 13, 20178 yr Was the shooter wearing gloves? I just read that. Why would he be wearing gloves? So that he wouldn't leave his fingerprints everywhere. Duh!
October 13, 20178 yr Was the shooter wearing gloves? I just read that. Why would he be wearing gloves? The barrel would get very hot.
October 14, 20178 yr The barrel would get very hot. Even the forestock? When shooting a rifle or shotgun, I typically place my hand on the forestock, rather than wrap it around the barrel.
October 14, 20178 yr Even the forestock? When shooting a rifle or shotgun, I typically place my hand on the forestock, rather than wrap it around the barrel. I’ve fired a lot of rounds and the forestock gets warm. And yes I’ve happened to touch a part of the barrel. Ouch. Lol.
October 14, 20178 yr Even the forestock? When shooting a rifle or shotgun, I typically place my hand on the forestock, rather than wrap it around the barrel. A lot of people prefer this grip, especially military. After a few hundred rounds, that would be mighty warm.
October 14, 20178 yr Thanks @TAC and @Jumper_Dad. I've fired a lot of different weapons and have never noticed the forestock getting hot. That said when I go to the range I'm not shooting massive amounts of ammo in a short period of time either.
October 14, 20178 yr The gloves I saw wouldn't protect from heat and Iwould love to know how many rounds he shot from each gun. How many guns did he actually shoot. I did read his brother said he was extremely allergic to chemicals/medicines and he would wear gloves just so he didn't get a reaction.
October 17, 20178 yr In the category of FWIW: Over an hour long but first hand account of events (nearby shooter) at PH supposedly on October 1. Also, here is a follow interview with the woman at the Bellagio - Rene Downs.
October 17, 20178 yr Police were getting calls of shots fired everywhere, and had victims running everywhere. A video of them clearing a nearby casino proves nothing other than the fact that they did their job.
October 17, 20178 yr Police were getting calls of shots fired everywhere, and had victims running everywhere. A video of them clearing a nearby casino proves nothing other than the fact that they did their job. I agree with you. I have a problem with all the other shooters in other places and yet there is to my knowledge now evidence of shots being fired in these places. No bullet damage nor wounds from the hospitals that point to a different type of weapon being used or the wounded coming forward and saying, "I was shot at the Bellagio. Or I was shot at the Tropicana." My biggest concern is that there is some evidence somewhere of maybe accomplices that helped this happen and that is the reason for the crazy inconsistency in the Sheriff Department's stories. I don't think they want to give up everything they know cause it looks to me like they are still hunting for someone or something.
October 17, 20178 yr The security guard is now missing... Las Vegas Security Guard, Jesus Campos, Credited With Saving Lives in Massacre, Is Missing
October 18, 20178 yr The security guard is now missing... Las Vegas Security Guard, Jesus Campos, Credited With Saving Lives in Massacre, Is Missing I think some people have exaggerated this. He was not missing, just didn't want the attention yet imo. He's apparently going to be on Ellen today.
