Number of magazines carried by mass shooters

Subject: Number of magazines carried by mass shooters Fri Jan 18, 2019 12:33 pm

I am specifically talking about loaded magazines NOT how many rounds.

Seung Hui Cho: Carried 19 10-15 rounds magazines

Elliot Rodger: 40 10 round magazines

George Hennard 3 15 round magazines for his Ruger P89 and 3 17 round magazines for his Glock 17

That´s three I can remember of the top of my head.

Adam Lanza carried ten 30 round magazines for his rifle (two of which were duct taped together "jungle style") and six magazines for each of pistols. Although I cannot recall the exact document, I recall reading somewhere in the DESP that these were a mix of 17 round magazines and 20 round magazines.

That was all he took? He must've made those bullets count to be able to hit 9 people fatally.

Yeah he either had practice or was extremely lucky. That's similar to Charles Whitman (UT bell tower shooter) he was a trained marksman which was one of the reasons the shooting was as bad as it was. He actually shot a pregnant woman in the stomach to kill her baby then shot the guy she was with that rushed to help her. To use Columbine as an example if Eric and Dylan had this guys training and knowledge it would have been much much worse

In Dylann Roof's case he honestly probably didn't need to be accurate or lucky since it was such close quarters. It was pretty much like shooting fish in a barrel since the area was pretty confined and most of the victims were cowering/hiding as opposed to running or fighting (other than 1 victim).

type M152379-081619 in Reference No.

The information about the magazines is in file sup 26, pages 19, 18, 36. I determined that there was a third 14 round magazine by using a bit of thinking on my own with the help of the CCTV timeline.

PM me if you feel too lazy to find the timeline of the shooting.

Robert killed 8 people, but he did kill himself if you count that as 9. I agree that he was accurate during the shooting.

Normally yes, but for a mass shooting it's actually pretty light. Most killers take hundreds of rounds and something like a dozen magazines.

Interesting. I wonder if there's a correlation between some shooters expecting or wanting to exchange gunfire with police or other armed people, and highest amounts of ammo. Obviously Paddock expected but didnt want police interference and he had thousands of rounds and fired something like a thousand rounds. But i wonder.

Jared Lee Loughner had a 33 round magazine for his Glock 19

Brenton Tarrant: at least 10 magazines, 4x Magpul PMag 30 round magazines, 5x Magpul PMag 40 round magazines, 1x Magpul PMag D-60 60 round drum magazine.

He had at least 6 magazines in his vest, one in the bolt action Mossberg Predator rifle, two magazines attached together on the Ruger AR-556, and the drum magazine in the Windham Weaponry WW-15.

The 10 magazines I listed are the ones he bought online, it's possible he bought more magazines in store.
