Pretty soon the question will be $15,000, no wait, $50,000 in guns and ammo. This number keeps climbing but the actual amount of guns and ammo doesn't. The point is valid - how did he buy all of this stuff but this crap where the price goes through the roof to try and make the point is tiresome.
The video says he had $1,000 in magazines. If we say $15/ea (you can always find them cheaper than that), that is 67 magazines which would be ~2,000 rounds = ~50lbs of ammo alone + the magazine weights so 60lbs in ammo/mags.
A bag with 180 rounds is a little cumbersome - I can't imagine him actually having almost 70 mags loaded and in carrying containers. His thumbs had to be raw unless he bought a speed loader, but still.
Did his grandparents not see him with piles - literal piles of magazines and equipment and wonder how he acquired so much material? The Columbine parent supposedly hadn't see their kid with the sawed off shotgun in his room, but this is way more obvious.
Put another way, if your delinquent roommate who had a part time job at Wendy's suddenly amassed a sizeable armory and the ammo/gear to haul it around, wouldn't you get just a little suspicious he was up to no good? I mean, your best friend in high school, and if he isn't starting a gun club, or a Youtube channel testing weapons, you are probably talking to law enforcement about the pile of 70 magazines and expensive 'scary black rifles'.
He had a job in fast food. How do we know he didn't have credit? I had credit at 17.
If he truly was working towards this since he was 14, he'd have to earn an average of 43 dollars a week to reach 9000 cash. He lives with his grandparents, so no rent bills. If he was just saving for a year, he'd have to save ~173$ a week for a year. At low tax brackets, that's approximately 20 hours of work a week.
It's odd, but not impossible, especially if he was planning this, as he clearly was.
I've been wondering if the supposed argument with his grandmother over a cell phone bill might actually have been an argument over her credit card bill. Of course I have no idea, but waiting to hear more details.
I have no idea why the grandma, who is in stable condition, has not stated anything here. I bet she lawyered up good, which adds to the mystery. The absentee mom, we know, said that "he had his reasons." I'd love an official statement from the grandma. The investigation and reporting of this case has been terrible.
You didn't read my post. It would only take a year, working part time, at a shit job to save that much, and that's if he didn't have any credit or savings before that. It's possible he's been saving for this for 4+ years. That doesn't even account for if he got credit, which would be easy for a kid with a job. Or he sucked 90 dude's dicks. It's not a lot of money if that's your goal.
A buddy of mine a long time ago told me how some guys he knew in high school saved up all year to buy marijuana in bulk - a guy showed up in a van with garbage bags full of weed for them. They threw a house party and took a brick (Mexican brick weed no doubt) and lit it in the fireplace with the baffles closed and smoked out their entire house.
Basically, some kids that age have goals/plans and the determination and fortitude to see them carried out.
...and then how did he learn to shoot them with uncanny accuracy? And know how to clear jams? And now how to load magazines? And learn how to shoot accurately while walking? And how did he manage to have ALL kill shots leaving no wounded?
Honestly, even a misaligned red dot is going to be dead-on accurate at school room distances. Then you have these guys doing point-blank headshots to ensure fatalities.

More like $5k. The guns are $4k and ammo would run about $390 assuming he bought it at a gun shop. The money left over would cover spare magazines and cheap accessories.
The interesting thing that hasn't been mentioned is where he bought the DD rifles from? The media and law enforcement should be swarming the gun shop that made the sale. If there was no local sale, there still should be a BATF form for the transfer at a local FFL. It is possible he purchased them in a local person to person transfer, but so far there has been no mention of it. If it was a P2P transfer, this would be headlines in the media and a push for elimination of P2P sales. In my State, the only way I would sell a firearm in a P2P sale is if he had a carry permit and even then, I would take a pic of it for my records. Considering all the far cheaper brands and home built AR's out there, I am very interested to see why Daniel Defense was the rifle of choice. I have a couple and they aren't cheap. My home builds were far cheaper. If the source of the firearms that we used is not disclosed, this will seal the certainty that this is a likely FF funded by our law enforcement or intelligence agencies.
I have driven thru Uvalde several times. It is not a wealthy town. Its roots seem to be agriculture. Famous as home of Cactus Jack Garner, former VP. After Uvalde driving west next stop is Del Rio and Rio Grande border.
I am sorry but 5.56 aint $1.00 per round. I can reliably get it either online or at local retail stores for around $0.50 per round as of like a week ago.
I wanna know how he could afford gas to drive to the shooting scene.

Welcome to 2022.
Lol, That's the truth!

So you see it too?😉
Yes because that's the point that should concern you the most.
I ask . Did he really purchase said guns?
or were they "laundered" to him through the gun sellers, Oasis
F&F gun maybe?

Most kids just buy cars with that saved money.

He turned 18 a few days before the shooting.
So he turned 18 and was magically able to move heaven and Earth to get these expensive guns just in time for the shooting?

This is also a great point.

and the $50000 truck?
Which wasn't his? Not part of this conversation. He stole that from his grandma.
A 15+ year old f250 isn't 50k either.
Yes. A 15+ year old f250 isn't 50k. But it doesn't even matter. It wasn't his.
Not a single 2007 over 20k, most around 14: https://www.carfax.com/Used-2007-Ford-F-250_z35701
...and then how did he learn to shoot them with uncanny accuracy? And know how to clear jams? And now how to load magazines? And learn how to shoot accurately while walking? And how did he manage to have ALL kill shots leaving no wounded?
He just turned 18!
Gimme a break. It didn't happen.
Staged.
Actors.
Honestly, even a misaligned red dot is going to be dead-on accurate at school room distances. Then you have these guys doing point-blank headshots to ensure fatalities.
Too many eyes to be staged and acted. A staged event would have had the cops looking like heroes. They're perfectly willing to kill our kids for real.
I'm guessing he had lots of help.
Maybe he took the Covid jab for a rich pharma executive? /s
With the rate of inflation this story is going to change on a weekly basis
PerkinsFBI will probably decide this guy needs to be arrested for the audacity of using his freedom of speech.

This is what I wonder daily. And also why wouldnt the guhvment give him 3-d printed guns to drive the "ghost gun" narrative home???
MS-13 tranny running bedroom CNC machine...even CNN started hitting backspace when they typed that out.
LOL
I don't have my own CNC machine yet, but when I do, it's going in the bedroom.

Follow the money....

Things frequently don’t end well when there isn’t a solid parental foundation.
Don’t forget the truck
Maybe he got the money from a student loan
I am sorry but 5.56 aint $1.00 per round. I can reliably get it either online or at local retail stores for around $0.50 per round as of like a week ago.
Cant find out if he was an illegal or not. If an illegal, he could have got them via the cartels.
He was born in North Dakota
