Wish they'd mention what firearm was used - it sounded like a smaller caliber - but how the hell did he manage to get it past security checks? The nuts will eat this up!

@duglop Most likely a building outside the perimeter. But close enough.

@Wreckless no they're saying possibly from behind - if you watch the video it makes sense...

@duglop @Render has an idea of location location location 😉

@Wreckless @Render yeah CBS has finally caught up with some info (I lost the NBC & MSNBC tv feeds and the youtube feeds were useless, CNN wasn't very reliable at first either) 100-200 yds away on a slightly elevated shed, but most of what CNN is sharing right now isn't new info...

@duglop

1). You can't tell the caliber from the audio on the TV.

2). He didn't get a rifle into the venue - he was on a roof outside.

3). He still should have been spotted in the prone position, in cammies, on a roof, with a long gun.

@th3j35t3r @duglop Only thing I can see happening is he gets up there quick and starts firing before they can react. Anything else was a monumental failure in security.

@FreedomATX @th3j35t3r he had to have scoped that location out well in advance....

@th3j35t3r they must have had eyes on him right away as quickly as they said shooter is down

@duglop @th3j35t3r A rally goer spotted the gunman and notified police and secret service. They knew before but not soon enough to stop the shots.

@th3j35t3r yes it was a smaller caliber AR-15 type rifle
