I'm pretty sure that 1 pic has him pointing the Walther. Here is the one I'm talking about:

Walther?

I see a big difference especially near the accessory rail(?).

Anybody else see that or am I completely wrong?

Nope, you're completely right. Its the P22. Good catch.

Just took a look at my P22... the rifled part of the barrel is a seperate piece, maybe 1/16" thick. It's recessed a bit, the shadow from the end of the actual barrel could easily cover it up, making the caliber appear much greater.I would take a pic but mycamera is missing and my phone just died. ugh.

In my experience, CCI MiniMag HPs will do more damage thanI would have thought... althoughI haven't tried them on flesh. I certainly wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of them.

On a completely irrelevant point, I was at work today and noticed that we sell the same vest as the shooter was wearing. When I first saw the pictures last night I thought he might be wearing a 5.11 vest and then on closer inspection I thought it must have been some off brand vest. When I saw the vest at work, it bewildered me to see that it was a FISHING vest.:?

Yup looks like he got the vest and his ammo from Dicks.

I voted "no" in that poll about regulating ammo. There is a poll about regulating the sale of ammo in the Commonwealth. I remember how idiotic it was around the Rockbridge County area on 9-11 over buying ammo at Wal-mart, and K-mart. I knew it would be like that, so I went to the over priced sexist gun shop to get my ammo. Liberals want to restrict the right of self protection--and that is their idiot response to any kind of terrorist action.
