Sniper Nicholas Irving discussed the weaponry used by the shooter who attempted to target former President Donald Trump. Irving emphasized that the shooter, a 20-year-old with no reported combat experience, may have lacked sufficient training to pull off the attack successfully. Addressing questions about the shooter's use of an AR-15, Irving acknowledged its effectiveness at close range but questioned its selection for such a high-stakes mission. Irving detailed how minimal training could significantly impact a shooter's accuracy, especially under stress and without proper support like a bipod. He noted that the average person might only have a 40% chance of hitting a target at 150 yards with open sights. When asked about his preferred weapon for a similar scenario, Irving firmly suggested a bolt-action rifle, known for its precision.
