It takes months if not years to legally buy an automatic weapon. The ATF claims he bought these in the last few weeks.

He was inside for about 3 hours before the SWAT finally went after him.

Current LEOs are a few decades behind the times, as they still think they can use a negotiator to talk shooters into giving up. The rad Islamic terrorists want to kill, not talk.
