Donald Trump fired off an M-4 rifle on Thursday as he took his 'law and order' appeal to a gun range at a North Carolina police lodge.

But his campaign team wouldn't release a photo he took with police officers who joined him at the shooting range, and individual officers weren't allowed to shoot their own pictures with the presidential candidate, an officer told DailyMail.com.

Early reviews are that Trump was right on target when he aimed and fired.

'He fired several shots. I saw two for-sure bullseyes. At the distance we were I couldn’t tell you there wasn’t more,' Ron 'Duck' Wyatt, the mayor of nearby Troutman told DailyMail.com.

'It was excellent marksmanship,' the former firearms instructor for police and civilians added.

Yeah but they say he blasted the M4. How do they get “blast” from a .223?

I’m not sure I’d call him my hero, but, I dearly love this man, and am beginning to love Mike Pence too. What a great team!

If it’s an indoor range they’re pretty loud.

Dang, I would love to see a picture of Trump shooting, but I understand the campaign’s decision to not allow any. Such an image would be red meat for the anti-gun left.

funny thing is, if it's a real M4, it IS an assault rifle... the M4 is a select fire weapon

Now let’s see Hillary up that one ........ we should all demand to see it.

Anyways.

First of all, I don’t think she’ll come close to within 5 feet of anything remotely like a rifle,

Secondly, if she tries to shoot anything, it will be the Dukakis helmet/tank photo of her.
