Allen's guns were legally purchased, according to a senior law enforcement official and law enforcement documents reviewed by NBC News.

Records show that Allen purchased a Maverick 12 gauge shotgun in August 2025. And records show he purchased an Armscor Precision .38 semi-automatic pistol in October 2023.

A senior law enforcement official tells NBC News those were the two weapons they recovered from Allen Saturday night.



He came across the country, on a train, with the firearms packed in his bags.

Fwiw ... two low end firearms. He must have been on a budget.

A budget assassin.

He is living at home, working a part-time, close to minimum wage job. Yeah. He’s on a budget.

That's all the dems can afford these days with their pathetic fundraising and the new difficulty in robbing tax payers to fund their scumbaggery.

At first I thought they were futzing up .380. However, it may have been 38 Super. Reporting about firearms is about as bad as it gets. Armscor (Rock Island) makes pistols in both calibers.

You're right, though, the number of crimes committed with 38 Super one could probably count on 1 hand. Ever.

That strikes me as being kind of dumb unless he wanted to spray the place outside of where he could get to the President.

I’m not aware of many semi autos chambered in .38. Usually revolver. Probably a .380. Of course the press knows nothing about firearms.

I could be mistaken.

And as usual when a lib has firearms, didn't do shite with it.

They really are a cargo cult. They think acting out is all you need to do and you'll change the world.

He's about to act out as someone's bitch in the pen for a LONG time.

Earl Swagger favored a 38 Super.

Mexicans like them also.
