Am I the only one that finds that article excessively vague? It is like something you would hear in a gun store (or read on INGO). While I find it believable that it was the H&K, and it may have been, I seriously doubt any of those claiming to know actually do.

 

[dross]

Wrong. I didn't use an HK.

 

[tv1217]

Yeah, but when you launched me out of a cannon at him, I was carrying a 416

You're not alone. The article seems to boil down to "we heard from someone that knows someone that read online that someone thinks they used the HK416."

We will never know for sure what gun was used unless we hear it from the guy who pulled the trigger himself.
So that will never happen.

Im not sure we need to know anyway, like anybody else who is into guns im a bit curious but that's it.What would be next?
Know what kind of ammo they used, what brand optic, sling, stock, light ...
What kind of boots the guy was wearing?

The job was done and its all I need to know.

Gotta know so we can get the same setup. After all we are all operators here...
Gotta find that cartoon someone posted a few months back.

I was gonna say why don't we just ask Osama what he was shot by but then I remembered what this thread was all about... Unless ST-6 faked his death and are water boarding the hell out of him as we speak and then once he really dies the weapon of choice will have been Sergeant so and so's smelly sock.
