Either that or Paddock was a patsy a la Harvey Lee Oswald.

Left a weapon on automatic shooting at the door?
I don't think it works like auto pilot.

Sorry, lost me at the last part there. How would one go about leaving "a weapon on automatic shooting at the door?" I don't think automatics do what you think they do. Not to mention that nothing he had was technically anything but lightly "modified" (and I use that term loosely; SlidFire stocks) semiautomatics that I've seen. Maybe I read that wrong, though.

I'm kinda thinking like he taped something to the trigger so it was always firing?? It would have to be something strong of course to hold it in that position. Similar to leaving a brick on the accelerator pedel and jumping out..
Anyway did you notice the shooting at the 4 min mark? Definite 2 guns being fired

Again I'll repeat, why would Paddock who had been buying guns for over 20yrs (apparently) be selling or dealing with guns registered in his own name purchased from legitimate gun dealers where there is a paper trail? Makes no sense no black market dealer or CIA operative would be dealing their own registered weapons
And if the scenario went down as you allege, why on earth would some disgruntled buyer or the CIA/FBI or anyone else for that matter, decide to turn on a ground of concert goers? For a laugh? This wasn't a spur of the moment mass murder, it was planned and executed, some might say, in a very professional manner.

That was actually one scary video...the sound of the gun firing gave me chills
