Last year, Remington settled for $73 million with Sandy Hook families.
“The settlement comes over seven years after the families sued the maker of the Bushmaster XM15-E2S semiautomatic rifle that was used in the 2012 mass shooting in Newtown, Connecticut.”
On the day of the shooting, law enforcement said the shooting was done with handguns, and the rifle was left in the trunk of the car in the parking lot.
“The two pistols were found inside the school and a .223-caliber Bushmaster rifle was found in the back of his mother’s car in the parking lot.”

Subsequent reports said he left a shotgun in the car and took the rifle. The reports said that 156 rounds were fired, 154 of them were .223.
