    Default Waterkloof Junction - Complex shootout

    http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/Ne...rzone-20151110
    I have not seen any post on this one. RIP for the brave security guard. Shameful that he only had 15!! His own fault or the company not willing to pay for the extra mags and rounds?!?

    This is yet another serious wake up for those not yet converted to more than 6 shots to sort out the BGs!

    RIP, why is the last comment about the mother of the little boys marital status even necessary?

    RIP

    What is even worse is that he was better off than a lot of other AR officers; one company in our area issue their response guys with a single stack 9mm Norinco with one mag and another company gives their guys stun-batons, pepperspray and some urban ninja skills

    Bloody hell! That is hectic! In line with a previous thread a week or so ago, this is just some more proof that you are not necessarily safer in a security complex!

    So much for the "you only need 3 shots and they will run away" argument. Condolences to the family, RIP.

    From what I could read there is no evidence to support that he didn't have an extra mag.

    Went to their website in the photos gallery and saw that some had vests with all the bells and whistles.

    Difficult to make an assumption at this stage. We don't know all the facts, but yes, spare mags are a must

    Under a heading Returned fire a source said he used all 15 rounds and had nothing left.
