Not an AR-15, after all

The Orlando Killer Didn't Use An AR-15 Rifle

He used a much more sophisticated tactical weapon.

The rifle used by the Islamist terrorist in Orlando was instead a Sig Sauer MCX carbine, a modular, multi-caliber (able to swap to different calibers, including 5.56 NATO, 300 BLK, and 7.62×39) rifle system that sometimes utilizes STANAG magazines common to more than 60 different firearms, but otherwise has no major parts that interface with AR-15s in any way, shape or form.

Oh, well, glad we settled that.
