30-06. Not a pro hit, someone stole Grandpas hunting rifle to do this.

I think it was Crowder that posted that it was a 30.06 Mauser. Definitely not modern Tier 1 operator equipment.

It’s possible if he was wearing a plate and the bullet nicked the top edge sending it into his neck.


I've seen nothing to suggest he was wearing a plate. He was in a white t-shirt and is a relatively small guy. It would have been pretty obvious if he was wearing a plate.

Bullet enters upper right side of his head and exits his lower left neck. Not a chest shot, not a ricocheting round off a plate. Look at videos from other angles

Have they said it’s a 30-
06 or are you guessing?



Crowder posted it in some message from a person close to the source.

He was 6’5”
No idea about the plate though
Just pointing out that he wasn’t small

Besides the plate holder around his neck?

I've seen pics in which you can see the outline of his nips through his thin white shirt. That would have to be the slimmest armor ever invented.

Some of yall have zero experience or knowledge of body armor. There’s no way he was wearing a plate carrier with steel plates under that t-shirt


Theres videos/pictures of him giving out MAGA hats at the beginning of the event and hes clearly just wearing a t-shirt - definitely was not wearing body armor.

Looked like he was hit in heart. Vest deflected shot. Shrapnel severed the jugular.

I'd need to see a pic of the carrier he was using. From every angle I've seen, there are no back straps, bulging buckles, or even unusual evenness beyond normal cotton movement.

Exactly, I don’t know what people imagine Body armor to look like, but plates are fricking heavy and require support that would be visible. Even ceramic plates require a visible carrier. If he was wearing a sport coat or hoodie maybe it’s possible

He wasn’t wearing a plate. Bullet enters his neck and came out in the clavicle area through his shirt… he lost function because he’s spine was severed I’d assume.
