Adam Cochran @adamscochran.bsky.social · 12/09/20251/2 In case you were wondering why the incorrect rumor of “trans activist” and “fascist symbols” on ammo started, it’s because arrows and initials are common ways manufacturers stamp ammo. Including “TRN” the ironsight and a direction broad arrow: 8930831079

The rifle used is suspected to have been a 30.06. Turan (the company that makes the pictured bullet) only makes up to 5.56 rifle caliber rounds. So unless the feds are wrong about the caliber of the rifle they found (unlikely) this can't be an explanation. 031

FedUpEsq @fedupesq.bsky.social · 12/09/2025After some research, "TRN" stands for Turan, a Turkish ammo manuf. which exports cheap ammo to the US. The only problem: Turan mostly makes 9mm ammo and some NATO calibers- reports say shooter used a .30-06. Turan doesn't make .30-06 ammo. So, unless I'm missing something, we still don't know. 🤷 120
Benjamin Muller @benjaminmuller.bsky.social · 12/09/2025That tracks.
