It's not per WSJ, it's per Steven Crowder. Good fucking job, Mugclub.

I'm sitll going to say it's possible that the messages could still be a deflection by the shooter, but I would say this is a check in the box for: psycho leftist killing
Also, if he got hit with a 30-06 from a Mosin at 200 yards, he didn't make it to the hospital alive. The damage to his spine would have been non-survivable. The stuff about him fighting for his life at the hospital was probably just miscommunication. I'm sure the medical staff were fighting hard to make it work, but there's only so much you can do.
Also, note that the "gun violence" narrative isn't going to work on a bolt-gun developed in 1891. It is "technically" a "weapon of war".
Doesn't matter. If he says he's trans then he is - that's trans-ideology's own rubric and they must be held to it.
Even if it turns out the shooter was far right and purposely did it to frame trans ideology just keep including him in the list of trans violence and calling him a trans shooter. Make them have to say out loud, "well ackshually just because somebody says they're trans doesn't mean they are". They won't see the hypocrisy, but others will.
It was not a Mosin Nagant. It was a Mauser. It's now owned by SIG Sauer, and they make basic sporter hunting rifles, it's not really the same thing as an antique Mauser with wood furniture.
It kind of sounds like it may just simply be a modern M03 or M18 model Mauser chambered in .30-06 with a cheap plastic stock. A modern off the shelf hunting rifle in $400-700 price point range. Not much different than a Ruger American, Savage 110, or Tikka t3x. It seems like kind of an oddball choice that might not be widely available or popular in the US. Edit I can only find a few Mauser dealers online. Palmetto doesn't carry them. Eurooptic has them in stock for $670. It doesn't seem to me very common. I just find that really odd.
If it were an antique Mauser, like an M98 or Kar98k, then it would have been chambered in some oddball European cartridge where one might not be able to find reliable surplus ammunition to feed it. An antique Mauser wouldn't be chambered in .30-06, unless it had been rechambered or "sporterized" (modified for hunting).
You are absolutely correct, I misread that as Mosin. Mea Culpa. It is indeed claimed as a Mauser.
However, as you pointed a .30-06 Mauser is actually super weird. The old Mausers are 8mm-Mauser (7.92x57mm) That's the "odd ball" cartridge, but those are actually easy to find because basically every early 20th century Mauser was in 8mm. As you pointed out, a modernized .30-06 Mauser is not at all common.
I think the ATF may simply be wrong about this because they might not understand what they are looking at yet until they hand it to a gunsmith. We've seen the low competence of ATF officials already.
But, like I said, you're 100% spot-on and this is a super important comment that I haven't seen anyone bring up. An old gun buddy of mine mentioned it and that's when I realized "wait... Mauser's are 8mm? dafuq?"
