Yep. The fully automatic version with the 30 round magazine.

Duh.

[Longnecktipper]

The "news" that these people spew simply amazes me !

[theGinsue]

Ignorance is one thing, but failure to do research is unforgivable. Then to ignore the obvious right in front of your face is beyond hope.

[Bailey Guns]

It's simply amazing sometimes how stupid a human being can be.

The NYT: Newspaper of Record

[sellersm]

Perhaps we could ask them to check if it's loaded? [Tooth]

[Ashton]

You can't fix stupid.

My thoughts exactly.

[SideShow Bob]

Damn !
So I am a G Lock fan boy ?
I think I'll go stick my head in the oven now............

[CrufflerSteve]

You can't fix stupid.

What about willful ignorance?

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/25/pageoneplus/corrections-july-25.html

"A picture on Tuesday with an article about the weapons used in the Aurora, Colo., shooting was published in error. It showed a Les Baer .45 — not a Glock .40-caliber semiautomatic pistol, which was used in the shooting. And the article referred incompletely to the availability of fully automatic weapons for sale. While the sale of new machine guns to civilians has been outlawed since 1986, older machine guns were grandfathered into the law and can be sold to civilians in certain states."

The New York Freakin' Times! I actually agree with that statement.

how did he fit a 100 round drum mag in that?

and where is the "shoulder thingy that goes up"?

[Sharpienads]

Unfreakinbelievable. [Rant1]

And what's worse is people actually read and agree with the s*!t that's in that newspaper.

[sniper7]

Journalists???

I haven't had TV for almost two years so once in a while, when on the road, I catch O'Reilly or whatever passes for entertainment on the tube. Tonight, Bill was arguing with Congressman Chafetz, R, from Utah about how it was reasonable for any purchases of "heavy weapons" or heavy duty ammunition to be reported to the FBI. Bill continued with the stupidity by insisting that the Aurora murderer ordered 60,000 rounds of ammunition. Bill repeated the 60k number at least five times. This is 10 times the number I've read on ammunition quantity. Not that it matters whether the stash was 6k or 60k, because he obviously only fired what he brought and one person would have a difficult time moving 6k or more rounds while committing multiple homicides.

I did stay on the Factor for John Stossel's piece on pot smoking being allowed in San Fran where cigarettes are banned. [Tooth]

I don't believe I will be taking any journalist's word for much of anything without quite a bit of scrutiny. No real change there.

Nice Glock in the OP's photo [ROFL2]

[Whistler]

New York and a "journalist", you were expecting less than a 3rd strike? [Coffee]

[UncleDave]

Yep. The fully automatic version with the 30 round clip.

Duh.

There fixed it for ya.

[Chad4000]

I equate reporting like this to saying,

"News at 5pm, woman hit by a 5 mpg diesel mack truck" and there is a picture of a minivan crashed into a miata...

[rockhound]

dont forget that the glock is a polymer weapon used by criminal to avoid detection at the metal detector,

[O2HeN2]

I've posted this before, but I might as well again:

That NYT photo is of the model with the best Glock trigger ever.

[sellersm]

Would that be the NY 3.5 trigger? [Coffee]
