    A fire arms expert confirms the large ammunition magazines used in the Christchurch mosque terrorist attack made it worse

    A fire arms expert confirms the large ammunition magazines used in the Christchurch mosque terrorist attack made it worse


    The coronial inquest in the 2019 mosque attacks is continuing - with witness and expert testimony on gun licensing, and fire-arms use.

    Expert Shane Hepi reviewed the attack footage for his analysis for the inquest.

    Hepi says with the offender's low skill, he wouldn't have carried out the atrocity to the level he did, if he'd used smaller capacity magazines.
