Is this in reference to the ICE shooting today in Texas?

 

Looks like.
“Inscibed“ “bullet casings” in a stripper clip.

 

Link to the story please?

 

The kirk gun looked like a modern sporting rifle with a mauser action. This gun was actually an antique? There are millions of guns out there with mauser actions. I'm not the history guy so I can't tell ya. Maybe the only connection is they're cheap throwaways. Maybe because it screams "amateur"?

 

It looked like a rebarreled 98

 

Old rifles hard to trace?

 

There are about three trillion AR's out there.

 

Could the OP provide context so we know what he is talking about?

 

Two things are obvious:

1. It seems to be conservative hunting season in this country.

2. The shooter, whoever he is will be labeled a MAGA extremist by the leftist media despite targeting an ICE facility.

 

hon
The liberals always say that. But now it appears he was not a conservative MAGA but was a ICE hater and shot an illegal alien . Poor aim or not very good with a rifle. Can’t ask him that as he is dead.

 

It will be copy and paste for the liberal media.

Obviously, the marked cartridge cases are copycat, so it has started already. The killing of Charlie Kirk will lead to God knows what, there are more crazy people out there than than we can imagine.

Mother of Dallas ICE shooter raged against gun rights

Mother of Dallas ICE shooter Joshua Jahn is hardline liberal who raged against gun rights

The mother of a sniper who killed two migrants in a horror shooting at a Dallas ICE facility was a liberal supporter of anti-gun laws who targeted members of the GOP over mass shootings.

Sharon Jahn, the mother of 29-year-old Joshua Jahn, kept an active Facebook page where she followed everyone from Kamala Harris and Rachel Maddow to an account representing the U.S. Democratic Socialists.

After the tragic mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas in 2022, she posted a lengthy rant to Facebook challenging Senators Ted Cruz and John Cornyn, as well as Governor Greg Abbott for their support of gun rights.

She wrote: 'Governor Abbott, Senator Cornyn and Senator Cruz how does it make you feel that your action to open up gun laws is responsible for the killing of 21 more people? Do you secretly sit in front of a tv and smile a demented smile? You must be proud of all the money that sits in your bank accounts from gun lobby support. Was it worth it, Governor Abbott? How about you senators?'

'When you prioritize money over people this is what you get,' Jahn added, noting 'blood money' all three had taken from the gun lobby.

She further slammed Cornyn for not having 'the spine to stand up to the NRA' for missing their annual meeting and saying he was a 'spineless coward.

'Why have our government officials failed us? Their lust for money and power. It is time we vote out spineless tools and bring in people who actually care about others.'

She also posted a poem that read: 'If we only have love, we can melt all the guns, and give the new world to our daughters and sons.'

 

As they almost always do... blame the gun.
Leftist MSN reorts:

MSN

"One user wrote, "This is Leftist domestic terrorism. It’s time to start criminally charging Elected Democrats who go around participating in attacks on ICE officers and who call ICE agents Nazis." "The shell casings were inscribed with 'die ICE." Like the assassin of Charlie kirk, these shooters clearly communicate their motive, yet the legacy."

The left is directly responsible for the anti-ICE propaganda. The 29 year old child looks like a real looser. There needs to be more in-depth accountability for people involved in the lives of these wingnuts. This idiot was certainly a product of his environment with a leftist moron of mother. It was reported he had plans to move into his parents property which indicates the family was supportive to him.
He had a "communist-themed Facebook profile picture" previous arrests for drugs.
"He reportedly displayed ANTIFA and communist imagery, showing an armed figure with a hammer and sickle and the text “GLORIOUS EXPOSITION, COMRADE.”

Just like the loser who killed Kirk this idiot-Jahn was certainly talking to others... possibly about his deranged plans?

 

Where’s our corrupt FBI to infiltrate and hack into these chat groups to find out what all these lunatics are up to?? To busy trying to arrest pastors in abortion clinics and parents attending school board meetings apparently.

 

There has been zero picture of the actual rifle.

The picture that's been shown by news media of the (their terms) "bullets", "magazine", etc. showed a five round clip of some sort. The "clip" has very brassy color/finish that almost matches the brass cases. I've never seen any stripper clips in that color. Those members that are historian of old military ammo, please educate me, which old military rifles used 5 rounds stripper clips. I know very little about rifles like the M1 Garand. I thought they used the "enbloc" clip that the cartridges are pre-loaded by hand into the clip.

 

I noticed that right away, and it sure looks like 7.92x57. I thought maybe 7.62x54R at first, but no rim. Most of the old bolt actions could load from a stripper clip like that one.

 

With all the violence that is occurring because of the rhetoric liberals are spewing out it is unimaginable that they keep doing it. Typically, they incite the violence and blame it on conservatives. There are way too many unbalanced liberals running around following this call to arms. The major news media and late-night TV celebrities are constantly fanning the flames. Now they are crying it's their right due to "Free Speech". So, they feel shouting "Fire" in a crowded auditorium is protected free speech.

If it were only silly lilly-livered liberals spewing this garbage we could adjust that... the problem is these are not liberals in the traditional sense. This is much worse than stupid liberals... they liberals were eaten by the left and the liberals who remain are cowering in the corners afraid of the monster they allowed in which has stolen their party. The monster is the radical left which is behind all of this evil we are now seeing. I would put a solid bet that the CCP and other world communist forces are fanning the flames of this insane hatred. Their goal? To destroy our country and finish the job, the educators and academia are preaching and destroying our youth. They want these younger gens to be vessels of hatred and go fourth into our country, wreak havoc and declare war on our very foundation and our way of life. This evil is now in our Congress on the side which has traditionally been democrats... this must be corrected.
We have a real problem because little pimples like these last two killers with rifles--- are just the tip of the iceberg. This is going to have to be called out for what it is and dealt with extreme prejudice. This is exactly how the evil radical left is working its poison... we must not and cannot allow this to occur. Start with the leaders of the party which is condoning this... our schools must be purged of all that are affecting our youth.
This latest whack-job 29yr old... didn't just happen... he was a product of his home and schools... unhinged and unmanaged.
Looks Like Congress Could Finally Be Getting Serious About Violent 'Radical Left' Networks

I don't' know why everyone thinks these Mausers are all war surplus. FN made hundreds of thousands of commercial, sporter Mausers after WWII in 30-06, 7x57, and 243 and sold them in the USA, Australia, and Canada under various names. Mausers actions may be the most prolific action out there. Roy Weatherby started out by taking Mauser actions and sporterizing them, so did Kimber. Ruger M77's are Mauser actions, so is the Springfield '03 and the Model of 1917.

Serial numbers weren't required until the mid-1950's. If this rifle the murderer in Texas used is an 8x57, it's probably a sporterized K98. Not as uncommon as people think. An unadulterated K98 is quite expensive.

 

It's too bad that these murderous types don't kill themselves first.
While I'm griping. I'm an old man, when things like this happened years ago, you got the news, the press was all over it and the police would release all sorts of information, especially in something like this. These days, the press is lazy and the cops are hiding too much information, just because they can.
Nothing about this investigation is hindered by showing us the rifle, the ammo, etc.; the same with the killing of Charlie Kirk.

 

These days, the press is lazy and the cops are hiding too much information, just because they can.

Or..... A lot of the information is suppressed from the news because of copy cat incidents.

 

I find it odd that the inscribed brass was blatantly left to be found .

 

Why? He fired 20-25 rds at the ICE facility building and the van with a bolt action rifle, most likely an 8mm Mauser K98, so he would have been carrying multiple, 5rd stripper clips to reload. Which he obviously did several times to fire off those 20-25 rds. And, by the time ICE agents ran across the street toward hims, he was fumbling to retreat and then commit suicide. So, why is that "odd" for him to have dropped a stripper clip? I'm sure he probably written on other cartridges with that same writing. Doesn't sound at all odd to me. Plus, reading about his mental defective, leftist mother makes all of this sound, anything but odd. What was he supposed to do with the "inscribed brass"? Swallow it before he shot himself to avoid capture by approaching ICE agents?

 

If he loaded or planned to reload his rifle with stripper clips as shown inscribed, his rifle did not have a conventional top mounted scope. Sure, he might have had a Pachmayr or Weaver hinged mount or a forward mount a la Scout Scope.
Hey, maybe he got that ZF41 outfit out of Grandpa's collection. More likely just the standard frontschwein open sight.

 

Because the distance was 100 yds or less. He didn't need a scope at that distance.

 

Speaking of snipers, if you even want to call them that, there was a guy in Atlanta that shot up the CDC building. I assume he used some kind of AR or semi auto rifle with big "CLIPS" (media's term). News reports said he fired several hundred rounds from wherever he was across the street from the CDC campus, it's a HUGE campus with several HUGE buildings. He hit a bunch of glass windows with those "hundreds" of rounds, but scored zero casualty in or around those buildings. He killed one cop that responded to the call, as the cop was getting out of his car. Again, I assume that was much closer.

His issue was that he thought the CDC and their invention of the covid vaccine messed his health up. I think RFK, Jr. got the blame for this guy going off on the CDC, since RFK, Jr spoke against the vaccine.

My point is, these whacko, psycho, crazy idiots are just that. They're crazy and that's what crazies do. Doesn't take a 1000 investigators months to figure that out.

 

With this guy popping off a lot of rounds, do you think he had a Gewehr 43? We used to sell a lot of Mosin's but K98s were a bit harder to get and $$, and I supposed a 43 harder still. Having said that we'll see he media focus in on Mauser actions as "sniper" guns,and one reporter talking about how the bullets were almost 4 inches long will showing a picture of the 8X57s in the stipper clip. However what they don't understand and or know about firearms would fill the Grand Canyon, but I'm not going to tell them. Would all be funny if people weren't dying.

 

Hadn't thought of that one. But it is an easy image of a vicious punk snagging the meanest looking gun out of Grandpa's case.

 

I doubt that. Reporting indicated that his mother was a leftist lunatic who hated guns and despised Texas Governor Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton because they didn't support the state of Texas banning guns. FBI reported that he recently "obtained" the rifle in August 2015. But, they didn't state how or from whom he obtained it.

Also, the curious thing is that in all the reports that I read, no mention was made about his father or any other relative, other than his lunatic mother and loony sister. That is unusual as most reporters usual find as much info on all closest family member or histories of close family members that died or no longer in the area and then they try to get interviews with them if they're still living for background on shooter's motives.

 

Surplus Yugoslav M48 bolt action rifles, which are a postwar copy of the 98K Mauser from WW2 are easy to find and relatively cheap, same with the ammo. You can either buy the old corrosive stuff or new-production stuff from S&B or PPU.

I have both an original 1944 German Mauser and a postwar M48 (I suspect it's a "Mitchell's Mausers" rebuild - IYKYK).

 

For those of you who don't believe just how dangerous the left is: They have found leaflets in plain sight at a Georgetown College Campuses recruiting "Leftists" with slogans like "Hey Facist... Catch". That was the slogan that the murderer of Charlie Kirk used.

Left Radical Gun Club called the "John Brown Club" is recruiting people and arming them. Like the Communists everywhere... in Russia, Cuba, China... everywhere there was a communist violent revolution, they use firearms and violence to implement their agenda... and when they are done... they collect the firearms from those that helped overthrow the government.

The John Brown Club has a history of showing up at left-wing events and protests armed with guns — and some suspected members were even arrested in July after allegedly launching firing works at a Texas ICE detention center, then firing a volley of bullets at workers and police.

Oh, I've known how dangerous the left is because they have a long and bloody history. Anyone that knows anything about history of communism knows how deadly, ruthless, and evil they are. Hundreds of millions of souls murdered by communism in the 20th century.

Our leftists are simply the current crop of communists that have grown from seeds planted in the USA from the 1930's and they are just now (within the last 30 years) grown up like weeds and gone to seed. They are the produce of the last 75 years of college/university communist professors that have been indoctrinating our college students and within the last 20-25 years the national teachers unions (new communist student indoctrinators of our children in public schools), that have done their best to brainwash our children. Now, they are coming home to roost.

Remember those revolutionary groups from the 60's and early 70s' like The Weathermen and Symbionese Liberation Army? Communist groups trying to create a race war between blacks and whites so they can take over what remains. well, thank God they failed. But, now they're back with a vengeance and have infiltrated the entire Jackass Party as well as the courts, legislatures, and executive branches. Let's just hope our youth resist their indoctrination so we can defeat them again.

Looks like Charlie Kirk's assassination has awoken a lot of the sleeping youths which is what the communists feared. That their indoctrination scheme may be falling apart. That's why they hated Kirk so much. Because he spoke the truth and exposed them. That's why they lied and called Kirk a hate monger, Nazi, Fascist. When in fact they are the Fascists and hate filled, evil equivalents of Nazis and communists like Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, and Putin.

 

Millions of Axis Mausers were imported after the war and probably a million were 'sporterized', had their bolt handles, barrels and stocks cut or replaced, receivers drilled and tapped for scopes. Many were rechambered to 30-06 as USGI surplus ammo and cases were dirt cheap. I've has a few.

Real WWII German Mauser sniper rifles were unique, rare and highly sought after collectors items.

Years ago, the late Sen. Diane Feinswine proposed a bill to ban ANY high-power rifle that could accept or could be made to accept a telescopic sight, effectively making it a SNIPER RIFLE!

The stripper clip is an odd twist because as we all know, a stripper clip cannot be used on most rifles with a scope in place.
