Has anyone that's watched any of the videos on twitter listened to the sounds of the rifle fire? Did it ever sound like more than one firing at a time?



i've watched several and it sounded like someone firing a rifle between several buildings which caused a lot of echoing

Aren't there audio software engineers that can tell if those sounds we think are an echo are actually multiple rifles being fired at the same time?

Is there a way for gun manufacturers to “fix the fix”? Meaning a way to block it where mods can’t be made?
I highly doubt it. These guns are very customizable. And the stock you're referencing isn't all that complicated.

Plus you can bump fire without the stock. Although accuracy from distance wouldn't be horrendous. Doing it in close quarters, unfortunately, would still get the job done.

To an untrained ear, like mine, yeah.

But I'm pretty sure that was because you could hear the shot, bullets hitting things, and echoes off buildings.

What about other guests who see a camera or two outside a guests room? I mean, it just seems like that would raise a red flag and need to be reported? Or I guess the other guests assumed the cameras were for the hotel?


peephole camera

or a endroscope camera under the door

Yeah, I worked at Vegas Hilton (now Westgate) from 05-09. Almost positive there was not cameras in hallways. Just lower lobby, gaming areas and elevators.

Except there was no firing between buildings, so no echo.

The dude popped off 500-1000+ rounds into an open area over a 10-20 minute time frame.

it was echoing off his building and the luxor and the other small buildings in the area. They don't have to be several stories high to have sound echoing off them

The lack of creditable info released by authorities to this point sure seems suspicious. During O's tenure who'd know the most likely reason for that under Trump who knows.

Please enlighten me on which hotels have cameras on their floors. I mean, only one of us has actually worked at hotels in Las Vegas but I'll believe you if you know otherwise.




Too much of a liability not to have them. You might not see them but I guarantee you they are there.

Watching Tucker on Fox with some witness interviews. Couldn’t imagine being there.

Still no motive they can find

Most places don't have cameras on the hotel floors, just in the lobby and casino. A lot out here don't even have them in the elevators but I believe Mandalay does.

In some circles cameras past the elevators is considered a liability. You could catch something you, or the guest, doesn't particularly want caught. I can tell you with 100% certainty that many high end hotels have the same policy and I imagine many in vegas would be the same.
