So this is how I find out about this?

It's another staged attempt and this one was even more obvious than the last.

Brain dead take.

Look into it. It was clearly staged. Someone getting a full sized weapon anywhere near that dinner should be impossible.

Absolute moron. He checked into the hotel early, before security had tightened. He was camped out in his room scribbling his manifesto, before running downstairs in a bid to start shooting before anyone could react. Unfortunately, people reacted.

Trump has never attended this event before, but this time he coincidentally does along with a ton of high ranking officials, he then right after says "This is why we need the ballroom" along with all of the high ranking officials who are smiling like idiots (not the face you'd be making if you just survived that), the guy's manifesto is released right after the shooting (this stuff is almost never released), and much, much more.
It was staged, just like his first. His ear has no wounds on it at all whatsoever. The cameras were in the perfect place.

Why is this post getting so much traction if I quite literally can’t even see the gun. And I know there’s better pics of this mp7 cause it’s getting posted a lot.

I literally just asked AI about SS weapons that may have popped up. Was looking for the suitcase uzi or something similar to the operational briefcase.

What kind of backpacks were the secret service carrying?
Loki_8888@reddit
They used Belgian FN P90 and Israeli UZI's in the past. Are there any good native PDW's ?
Gr144@reddit
i think it’s an MP7
Fwob@reddit
any idea what shotgun was used by the perp?
Prestigious_Score436@reddit
That looks like a 1911 style Ruger 5.7 safety behind his thumb. Its a new Strike Industries chassis for a 5.7, or what i own, an older mp7 like design made by CSM called the MP-57... thats my guess. Both have a rear picatinny rail that accepts any 1913 stock as shown. Makes sense since some secret service already uses 57 i hear.

Trump : Buy American products !!
Trump's Bodyguard : Uses a German SMG
TheAsianTroll@reddit
I know its nitpicking but HK does make some guns in the US. Hell, half of our inventory of Army M4A1s are from FN Herstal.
Entire_Judge_2988@reddit
So, is that MP7 made in the USA ?
TheAsianTroll@reddit
It very well could be. I dont have it in my hands so I cant look at the proof marks myself.
supermutant207@reddit
They are not. HK USA does not have them listed on their website, but the English language website site of HK in Germany does for military and law enforcement. Apparently they are imported.
TheAsianTroll@reddit
You are correct, but to double back to what the other guy said:
We know Trump is a hypocrite. Everyone sources weapons from non-US companies all the time. Its just how it is. The everyday consumer is not going to be in the market for a PDW or submachine gun.
DukeOfGeek@reddit
Could you find a more blurry and indistinct pic?
Few_Carpenter_9185@reddit
A B&T MP9 would be my guess as well.
