HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE WEAPON RECOVERED AT TRUMP’S GOLF COURSE

Authorities identified the suspected gunman’s alleged weapon as an AK-47-style
rifle, but an expert cautioned that it appeared to instead be an SKS-type rifle.

Authorities said they recovered the rifle that a gunman pointed through a fence
around a Florida golf course where Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump
was playing Sunday. Unlike in the assassination attempt against Trump in July,
and in many of the mass shootings that have plagued the country in recent years,
authorities believe the suspected gunman did not use an AR-style rifle.
