I've watched this for the 5th time tonight on my DVD. I can't help but think that they'd have been much better off it they were *properly equiped.*
The dude with the shotgun was doing good. He had a sh!tload of shells for that puppy. But the dude with the .308 Galil having only 3 mags? And then dumping 2 into walls?
Let's just say that each of them boys has a 1911. Fine. Put 10 mags into that (remember, they're carrying in pockets, and not just those double mag pouches). That's 77 rounds of .45ACP, assuming they're using USGI 7 roud mags.
Now, instead of 75 rounds of .308 and 50 OO-Buck rounds, let's say they each have AR15 carbines. And a full load of 7 30 round mags each. That's all of a sudden 210 rounds, X2, is 420 long gun rounds and 77 X2 is 154.
Total pre-AR15 is about 279 rounds.
Pre WITH AR15 for each is 510 rounds.
Don't you think that would've made a hell of a difference? They obvious had some tactics and knew of fire control (thought they didn't always use is).
What if they were going up against 7 "bagmen", a few of whom had MP5's?
Hmmm.
