Why don't any of these guys use a sniper rifle anymore?
If you go in with pistols and shotguns, you're obviously gonna get caught
But if you find a good spot and have a silencer, it could be months before you get caught, if ever
You could really rack up the kills that way

whoever is doing the appstate.edu updates needs some spellcheck....
the whole thing seems a bit flimsy. This is all because someone was seen with a small black handgun? what you want to bet it was either a prank or just someone dressing up or a paint ball gun or something?3/3/2008 6:00:05 PM |

Yes. He was also wearing a ski mask. Its also pretty hard to confuse an outfitted paintball gun and a handgun in broad day light.

"Silencers" only exist in hollywoodland
Decent suppressors arent that hard to come by however. Especially in a place like Boone, a good suppressor would do wonders, given the terrain and density of the town.

agentlion All American 13936 Posts user info edit post |
it was a robbery. therefore, not a "gunman", it was a "man with a gun". And not even confirmed to be a real gun at that....
http://www.wataugademocrat.com/2008/0303/0303lockdown.php
Quote : | "A robbery attempt late Monday afternoon led to a lockdown on the Appalachian State campus and police are still looking for a fugitive gunman.
Around 3 p.m., ASU student Matthew Haney came home to his apartment on Hill Street behind the Holmes Convocation Center to find a masked man trying to steal his television.
Haney said the gunman wore a black mask, black Pink Floyd T-shirt, dark jacket, red and green tennis shoes and blue jeans. The gunman pointed a small, black pistol at Haney and both men fled. The gunman ran into the woods and Haney drove quickly to the apartment’s management office to make a police report." |
