The two rifles used in the North Hollywood bank robbery were
1.) Semi-auto HK 91 which was shot through the receiver above the trigger pack and continued to function until the magazine was empty.
2.) Chinese copy of an AKM (commonly but incorrectly called the AK47), illegally modified to fire fully automatic and loaded with AP ammunition.

There were other rifles and handguns in the trunk of their car that were not used.

May your lead always hit center mass and your brass always land in your range bag.
