The gun attachment was used by the gunman who rattled off over 1000 bullets in 11 minutes in Las Vegas in 2017.

Survivors of the 2017 mass shooting in Las Vegas and families who received sombre calls hours later said they were alarmed when the US Supreme Court yesterday struck down a ban on the gun attachment used by the gunman who rattled off over 1000 bullets in 11 minutes.

The ruling was not directly about the Second Amendment, and Justice Samuel Alito concurred with Thomas but wrote a short separate opinion to stress that Congress can change the law. “I can’t help but think over and over again, he and I might’ve been going to get a beer when that happened, or it might’ve been me instead of him,” he said.

Amid ricocheting bullets and the screams, Bartlett helped load her friend into an ambulance, and she survived.
