M11 semi used in CA Chinese New Year massacre?

[plodder]

Some spotty "news" reports I am seeing are referring to one of the weapons the perp used at the Chinese New Year mass murder near LA as a MAC 11 semi-auto. Also noted was that a employee saw the perp trying to load or re-load during the incident and somehow stopped him (perhaps fumbling with a balky magazine?). Trivial in light of the enormity of evil and suffering the perp brought into the world, but just wondering how & why the MAC 11 semi-auto and how often MAC 11 semis are involved in crimes.

It was an SWD M11/9 with homemade silencer. Unknown if it was F/A or not.

Whose m11/nine got stolen here about 8 years ago…

But those guns, and silencers, are illegal in CA!

About 10 years ago I believe a mpa30 was used to rob a bank in either south Ga or North Fl by some 20 year olds.

The video, just the 2 guys wrestling for the gun, nothing graphic:

They said that the old bad guy was making homemade suppressors so that's probably what he had on the end, along with some kind of cover. Thankfully the young man was able to get it away from him before he was able to use it at the second location.

 

[Hey...]

Surprised it actually fired enough rounds reliably to kill 10 people.

Sheriff is calling it an “assault Pistol”. Made a point to say it’s not an assault rifle but an assault pistol. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised by now

Saw a clip on some news outlet.
Did not see a stock/brace

Did see a Bizarre 2 stage can wrapped with something.

That guy is a real honest to goodness American hero. He looks like he tried to shoot the perp with his own gun at 1:06. So sad the people do these things.

It appears to have a forward sling attachment. Any ideas on what it is?
