While there, Trump admired a firearm; a Glock19 handgun that bares Trumps image in the handle. Following the act of heinous shooting that struck the former President on his ear, it was learned that the shooter’s DPMS-

“I'm going to buy one. I want to buy one…Isn't glock a great gun?'— Comments by Former President Donald Trump while campaigning in S Carolina. Trump visited Palmetto State Armory, 2023
On a day in 2023, former President Donald Trump posed for a photo with the owner of the Palmetto Stste Armiry and a 9MM Glock 45 handgun. During his day of gun shopping , Trump stated that he wanted to and was going to purchase a firearm. The cost ofthe handgun baring the image of Trump on the grip is $830.00 dollars.
During his visit to the Carolina armory, the former President may have indicated that he was going to purchase the fire arm, however, his purchase of a fire arm, at that time , would have resulted in Trump having an additional felony charge.
According to federal law involving the purchase of a fire arm, no one is permitted to purchase a gun while, simultaneously, remaining under felony criminal charges.
Today, expert shooters state that a marksman would not have missed. The trained shooter, those who are military snipers, have stated that a trained sniper would have been able to strike a small object several times from 150-200 yards using the AR rifle. The impression made is that Thomas M Crooks was not a trained shooter and, otherwise, indicated that he was, also, not a Navy Seal or other military trained shooter.
Based on the shooter’s firing skill, the investigation of the shooting reports that it was, in part, tge lack of significant skill that is the reason Trump is alive or not more seriously injured. Others believe it was just the hand of God that spared former President Donald Trump’s life.
One other quite significant factor uncovered during the investigation is that the 74 year old rifle design has been banned in a number of states whike, however, the AR rifle remains quite popular among gun enthusiasts.
