I just watched the movie, 44 Minutes, the North Hollywood Shootout.
What amazed me about the movie is..
Absolutely NOT A SINGLE RIFLE... There were a few shotguns, but not a single rifle..
They talked about the AK like the 7.62Commie is the end all be all, it's not.. I can only imagine if there were 5 guys, with 308's who were tactically compotent and had better position and didn't wait for 8 minutes to be surrounded by 50+ cops.
I absolutely am not shortchanging the officers; but I have to question, how is it that there was not a single, even remotely head grazing shot? I'm sure when someone is spraying an AK at you, the entire ball game changes, But I'm just wondering if the officers were aiming for center of mass the entire time, or a head is just that difficult to hit?
Someone needed to get on the rifle.. Just incredible..
2 guys with AK's outgun 50+ LAPD's... And LAPD is one of the largest police forces in America. I can only imagine, 5 guys with 308's who have some sort of tactical training, some cover, and were on the communication bands, working together. They'd make 50+ police officers look like a joke I suspect..
I was both amazed by the movie as well as disturbed..
