The sources, who have detailed knowledge of the investigation, cautioned that initial information that an AR-15 was used in the shootings may have been incorrect.
Regardless, the massacre pushed the AR-15 back into the gun-control debate. The weapon has been used in several other rampages that shocked the nation:

Reblogged this on Reality Check and commented:
They got that wrong, we need to repeal the FIRST AMENDMENT based on their OWN misinformation.
At this point, what difference does it make?
ANY WEAPON used against unarmed people is likely to succeed.
It was a gun-free killing zone. So sad.
Just think… if it was legal to carry in DC, perhaps he would have been stopped sooner.
Years sooner.
The infamous AR15 shotgun. Hey “Big F’n Deal” told him to get a shotgun.
They couldn’t wait to get into the gun control debate and they heard a rumor of an AR being used. Then they have to rehash all the mass murders with AR’s after saying one wasn’t used. These guys can’t wait for the dust to settle before dragging out the gun control meme. Didn’t CNN have a mention of an AR-16 Shotgun? I wonder if that is a 12 ga black rifle or a .22 shooting rat shot.
You are absolutely right, Gamecock @ Walt. Any firearm makes a crowd of unarmed people a killing zone. You would think you are safe on a military installation with security guards and ID required for entry. Would you think about needing self defense? Except the military is disarmed and a few security guards may not be able to stop a determined maniac. Normally, you feel comfortable about being in safe places. Where are those?
AR’s 1-4 have killed far more people than an AR-15.
Park Ranger has altercation with houseboat owner over loud music being played. Ranger teaches unarmed houseboat owner a lesson by shooting guest just standing there next to 9 year old son.

Another bozo who shouldn’t be allowed to carry a firearm.
The gun control folks just want everyone to be safe like the people in Chicago are.

Very contagious voices. Once killed the voices immediately jumped into the minds of Obama’s media lackeys and started whispering AR-15, AR-15, AR-15.
This is what the Left does. They hate to acknowledge reality in pushing their disinformation-based ideological propaganda.
Ironically not only didn’t the shooter use an AR-15 but in fact he did use the gun that Joe Biden suggested; a shotgun.
They should just rename the rifle and cause brain seizures because it disrupts their childish narrative.
