    Not sure of the spelling; Glok, Gloque? Glock? Semi Automatic with extended clip (room for extra rounds). I'm all for self defense, the right to arm bears etc but this is not on the order of "I'm just keeping this in case someone breaks in one night to steal my commuter bike"

    BTW I was wrong about it being elderly gents who restrained the shooter. This is a great tragedy and yet could have been much worse but for a woman who had been shot and yet disarmed him: and the two gents who tackled him afterwards.
