@KristenhCNN: "Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung clarifies to CNN that former President Donald Trump did NOT purchase a firearm at the armory in Summerville, South Carolina, on Monday.
>@StephenGutowski: 'It would be a crime for him to actually buy this gun because he's under felony indictment. Did he actually go through with this purchase?'"
@MarinaMedvin: "That's because 18 U.S.C. § 922(n) makes it a crime for someone under a felony indictment to purchase a firearm.
Interestingly, although § 922(n) does not contain an intent requirement to convict, the relevant sentencing provision in § 924(a)(1)(D) does require that a violation be committed willfully."
@MarinaMedvin: "I believe this law is a #2A violation, but that's a separate issue entirely."
@shipwreckedcrew: "More than one judge has already determined the restriction to be invalid.
>@StephenGutowski: 'In theory, Trump could raise a constitutional challenge to this provision of federal law under the Supreme Court's latest interpretation of the Second Amendment in Bruen. Hunter Biden's lawyers say he is planning to use that defense to his gun charge.'"

Since it's a commemorative piece, if he wanted to get it now, I suppose he could have an armorer make it permanently inoperable so that it's no longer a functioning "firearm."
Ordinarily, one wouldn't want to mess up a collector's piece in this manner, but given that it would be owned by President Trump, and the armorer making it permanently inoperable is for this particular historical reason at this time, the value would very likely increase. 😀
Gold-plated muzzle, naturally.

Thats not a gold plated muzzle.. It is called "Titanium Nitride" my gun has it.. it is a stronger metal and therefore resists wear. It has a gold like color but it is not gold and you dont buy it for the looks.
