The gun that killed Bin Laden
#1
The biggest secret in the special operations community—what gun did SEALs from "DevGru" kill Osama bin Laden with—has been revealed. Two military gear blogs, citing multiple insider sources, credit the highly reliable HK416 rifle, an M-16 type weapon, with the "double tap" of 5.56 mm bullets to bin Laden's head.

Huh so were they full body shots or close-ups? Was he wearing just underwear or a tan robe? Were there 12 photos or 4, 5, or 6? Two very different stories from people who claim to have seen the photos. I also like how descriptive the OK senator is... "messy stuff" and "internal material".
