I want to know how he managed that shot with iron sights, right after he turned back from threatening the cop.
I don't see a scope on that rifle. Am I wrong?
:: The assumption was they got his name by tracing the rifle to his dad. ::
Then they back-tracked that to say they got it from the car-tag on his Sonata.
Then, the story changed again because -they say- he hauled his equipment in a white van with AZ plates.
Too many moving targets.
Yes, Wray was fuzzy of which device shooter used, laptop or phone, and he did not name the Foreign contacts understandably, nor the nations, and Sch_f did not ask.🙄
I switched to the colossal speech of Prime Minister Netanyahu after Sch_f finished without probing Wray’s remark.
Wray was naming broadly and namelessly the several “high profile people, some foreign”, making the point shooter’s cache captured photos of them in the articles and it seems at this point to be random searches.
Shooter also Googled the distance between shooter Oswald from KENNEDY. Interesting Q. That query was the day shooter researched the venue of the Trump rally.
Something lost in the mumblelation here? The kid was known to have recently bought a carton of 50 cartridges. Finding 8 cartridges would be doublemumble. Is the claim that 8 fired casings were found on the roof? Be instructive to know where the bullets wound up? They’re somewhere in Butler PA.
Described as “nothing special” by FBI, a DPMS AR-15 5.56 probably $400 or so when purchased. Roof video after Crooks neutralized looks like it has some kind of small Aimpoint-style sight.
Kamala cleaning house? Works for me. She has the knee pads.
But any cleaning she does will just make the job simpler later on-—thinning the herd as it were/was/is?
So the DemonRats salvage something out of this anyway... (if true).
Up from a nap. Thinking about “mirror” and the Trump card. We should be seeing it soon and maybe a “mirror” is a Biden card. It would be interesting if it’s time for him to do what he is told by the white hats. Speech tonight. Would love it if he outs the DS.

Did I see correctly that the guy on the roof had a bullet hole through his leg? I thought there was only one shot by the counter sniper to take out the patsy?
That said the HEX for N757AF is a static and is AA4310.
4+3+10=17
Assuming we’re seeing pics of the actual rifle, yeah it has open sights, no scope. A scope would in no way be necessary to make a person-sized head shot at 130 yards, or so. The front yard at my shop is something over 150 yards wide/long. I kill varmits almost daily all over the space with whatever rifle is within reach, scope/no-scope, whatever. Squirrel-sized varmits are maybe 1/4 the size of a human head.
And it’s worth noting that our GI’s initially qualify on a 24” bull, with open sights, at 300 yards. The center of the bull is a head-sized black ball.
So, you’re good-—not to worry-—about that, anyway.
there was an interesting comment by Wray saying today that the perp had bought the rifle from his father (?)
circle back to add to watch list
-—so much backtracking-—so little time. They couldn’t have gotten the punk’s age from either car registration, not directly anyway. If they got a good name off a registration, presumably they could have found a driver’s licence which would have shown a DOB.
If one of the vehicles was registered to his home address, which we don’t yet know, dating him would have gotten easier. And they had to trace the rifle, regardless, and that’s when mom and dad got polite.
Too many moving targets.

hard to hit a moving target
“Assuming we’re seeing pics of the actual rifle, yeah it has open sights, no scope. A scope would in no way be necessary to make a person-sized head shot at 130 yards, or so.”
The picture of the shooter shows him wearing glasses.
Did he have contacts or glasses on for the shooting, or neither?
What was his prescription?
Near sighted?
Far sighted?
wonder who loaded all this evidence on his devices?
same peep that sanitized his crib?
DPMS has long been a supplier of kits, uppers, lowers, makings of all sorts, including out-of-spec factory barrels. I bought a few of their trigger group parts decades ago and found them to always be out of spec. They bought from the mil-spec makers, taking their out-of-grade stuff. Serviceable but never exactly right. Knowing the rifle was/is DPMS would lead me to expect it couldn’t actually make a reliable head shot at 130 yds. And that could explain the two wounded guys along with Corey who seem to be victims of scatter-shot?
It’s not a small job to make a consistently accurate 22 cal barrel that can handle mach 3 or more.
