So the latest CNN update says that they used a rifle (singular) and handguns (plural), as well as six bombs, during the big firefight. The handguns were both found at the scene, which is why the police reported that they thought Dzhokar Tsarnaev was still armed with the rifle. Again, nobody seems to know the make/model of any of the guns so far.

Also, like everyone else, I have followed the new developments on Twitter, and I'm subscribed to many military bloggers and gun-related channels. I'm waiting for one of them to hear something about the weapons and Tweet about it.

Looked like a 416 to me because of the hand guard. That, and the fact that HRT is a well-known user of the 416.
