I posted this question on another thread, but will repost for interest:

This is the picture of the guns the shooter posted on Instagram:

Now look at this picture:

Here’s a picture of the optic:

The Daniel Defense rifle that seems to be the one in the shooter’s photos. It costs $2,162 and the optic is $689.

Where does an 18 year old get the cash for something this expensive, especially since he also has a second AR15?

Not that hard to save up that kind of money when room and board is covered.

Very good question. Who is funding this? THAT needs to be answered.

Great work finding those, and that’s a very good question - that’s a lot of money for an 18 year old, and odd that he would have a sight. Did he have it for hunting?

There’s so much unknown here, and where is his family?

Quite possible that mommy and/or daddy bought it for them.

Wow. Somebody really splashed out the dough. There’s so much we don’t know now. Were those really his guns? Or did they belong to a relative and he got them out and took pictures? Whose truck was he driving? Not grandma’s, surely?

I wondered the same thing about the kid who shot all those people in the grocery store last week. Where did he get the money to but those guns and all that fancy kit? Turned out he worked at a store for four months, traded silver coins and sold his jackets on ebay to get up the money. But his stuff did add up to the prices you quoted for this kid’s.

A very good question. One thing the media does in these cases is hound LE about where the shooter got his guns, etc. Maybe we will learn the answer in time.

The communists gave a bunch of guns to the gangs in Mexico.
Couple more to keep the gun control mantra rolling in Texas would be nothing to the DNC.
The left is playing for keeps.

All true. And... he was unemployed.

He ordered it from Daniel Defense on-line. Then a couple of days later he bought a second one also online. Whose credit card did he use, Grandma’s ? We need to know. If not hers whose?
