How Many Lives Did The Concealed-Carry Licensee Save?
Captain's Quarter's Blog ^

Jeanne Assam carried her pistol with her to church on Sunday. She did so legally, having received a license to carry a concealed weapon. If a weapon in church seems incongruous, it also became providential on this particular Sunday, as Assam stopped an assault that may have killed many more people than it did.

Several pounds depending on the round, however, that’s NOT what the police said. They said, “we are still inventorying, but he had a backpack CAPABLE of carrying around 1000 rounds”.

1000 rounds of .223 if I remember is about 10 lbs or so, maybe a bit more, but it’s pretty heavy, plus if you have magazines for that weapon... quite a bit more. (I’m going from memory, so someone that has a better idea should be able to give a more accurate number)

“I heard on Fox news yesterday that he had a backpack with about 1,000 rounds. How heavy is that?”

Well a box of 20 rounds of 30-06 cannot weigh more than half a pound so I would guess about 25 pounds.

I, too, watched him on Hannity and Colmes last night and observed a man who was very skilled at using factually accurate statements totally to mislead.

Reminded me of another so-called Christian from Hope, Arkansas.

and thanx to you to.

I used to watch my husband lug around boxes of ammo at the range and they seemed very heavy.

Fox News is just reporting “suicide”

b.s. What a crock.

Good bet he would have died from the security ladies rounds. What is the likelihood once injured that he could turn around a rifle in a hallway and then shoot himself.

I predict b.s.
