The all-news station says he was carrying some 500 rounds of ammunition.

In mags? He musta clanked when he walked... and probably couldn't move terribly fast. My bet is that he just strode in thinking he was Mr. Terminator.

No Second Place Winner, Pal.

I’m guessing the 500 was a SWAG estimate. But 12 mags of 30 each of 5.56mm fits into 4 standard GI pouches, and that’s 360 right there. Add the 30 in the rifle for 390, and a loose bandoleer puts you over 500 easy, and not so heavy as to restrict mobility. Shoot, that’s just ammo. Our troops run around with that plus a ton of other gear, all over heavy body armor. (Which BTW, Murray may have been wearing.)

Darn good thing the lady shooter nailed him!

If he had gotten up into a choir loft....................

He probably had a tactical vest on. You can get em on the internet from anywhere.
