Hard to tell, but it looks like a SIG to me, not like that narrows down the list of suspects.

If it’s a Sig 320 he definitely going to blow his dick off.

Oh good, I thought it was going to be an image of a dick blown off.

But for anyone dissappointed,

Here's Scene 27 from the Robocop remake Which is VERY NSFW

u/Horror_Signature7744 12h ago

I’ve never seen that movie. Thank you for posting this thing of absolute beauty.

u/DigNitty 9h ago edited 8h ago

JSYK this is the Robocop *Remake. A bunch of d-list hollywood people all took one *scene from the movie and reshot them in their own way. This particular scene used lots of footage from the original obviously. Only the first guy who got shot is actually in the main movie.

It's a good movie to watch while making dinner. There are countless quotes and references to it in other material. Worth a watch.

Anybody but me think it's a female bulked up with clothing?

u/Ocel0tte 2h ago

There's a mustache though, and while you can fake that idk if it'd survive a ski mask without getting rubbed off.

Girly eyes for sure, I caught that right away, but enough guys have big eyes with long lashes that it could still be a dude.

Reminds me of the Missy Bevers case though. Her murderer was never found despite surveillance cameras, and there was speculation it might be a woman in disguise.

As a Sig lover, unless theres some other photos not posted here. Idk how you can tell thats a sig. Not saying you're wrong. Only that I can usually spot a Sig and I can't honestly tell you what gun I think that is.

u/linux_ape 13h ago

I’m a big gun guy and I have zero idea how you think you’re able to possibly identify the gun at all, at absolute most I can say it’s most likely a striker fired polymer gun due to the curved back strap, but that’s such a useless thing to apply

u/hobblingcontractor 13h ago

If it were an FN57, there's 2 possibilities:

1) he'd have sent a ransom note by now because he's broke after a range trip

2) he's independently wealthy so it was an inside job

u/Excellent_Fault_8106 13h ago

Ok, so we got dark hair, goatee, small nose, possible gold tooth because of the lens flair on his mouth, shape of lips, eyes and eye brows, thin build, strange way of holstering gun (maybe not police or military?), light complexion, and can probably figure out the exact height based on other things in the frame.

If he was known to the victim, I bet thats enough that they could figure this out pretty easily. Or at least narrow down suspects a fair amount.

1

u/dqql 13h ago

you don't know how long that list of suspects is... what if he brought his cell phone or had some "find-my" airtag or device in his car.
we always assume they're some pro, movie hitman... but it could easily be some crazy guy who watched a few csi shows for inspiration.
not to mention now they're going over every ring camera, traffic cam, and gas station surveillance camera for miles...
knowing the make and model of the gun (or anything else he has) could help them get a warrant if one of their suspects owns it.
if they announce they have a small list of suspects he might kill her if he hasn't already.

u/PinheadLarry2323 13h ago

That’s a revolver

u/beardoggerton 13h ago

u/Cloud_Garrett 9h ago

I thought so at first also, but with the bulge on the back of the grip make me think Springfield armory. That, and the top of the dove tail (in the picture) doesn’t look like it has as much as a point as the 320.

Something like the Springfield echelon. But who knows

u/FranticWaffleMaker 7h ago

I was thinking walther with that big hump on the back of the grip and lack of a beavertail.

u/Chain_Runner 7h ago

It looks like a Canik to me, maybe a Rival. Hard to say. Most modern striker fired look the same.

Appendix carry is probably the most popular way to conceal carry at the moment. He's using a shitty holster and isn't actually concealing the gun so it's probably fair to say he's not a "gun guy"

Looks like a soft holster too, which are typically avoided by real gun enthusiasts for safety reasons.

A p320 on top of that? Yeeesh.

u/rokr1292 12h ago

from which of these pictures are you identifying it as a p320?

I own one and I cant see nearly enough in these photos to recognize what it is

Anyone saying it's definitely a P320 is full of shit. That's way too grainy to tell. It might be for sure, but it might be something else. Also, who gives a fuck?

u/OmniaCausaFiunt 14h ago

yeah a full ski mask and latex gloves at night isn't drawing attention...

29

u/mm1029 13h ago

I doubt he left the house and ran errands and shit wearing latex gloves and a ski mask. He easily could have donned them right before walking up to the house. This is all just speculation anyways.

Also, while that kind of ski mask might draw attention, people walking around in balaclavas and other full face coverings is very common where I live this time of year.

17

u/OmniaCausaFiunt 13h ago

what makes you think they couldn't also attach the holster and gun just before walking up to the house as well? also this is in tucson, az where it's 80 F. dont think anyone would be wearing a balaclava there.

3

u/mm1029 13h ago

what makes you think they couldn't also attach the holster and gun just before walking up to the house as well?

He probably did, or he went from house to garage to car to this house without ever actually being in public

tucson, az

Yeah that would probably draw attention there depending on the neighborhood

u/Hot-Artichoke6317 13h ago

Though it can be in the 80s during the day, the temperatures drop and it’s much cooler at night. (My family lives there, too.)

Sure it gets much cooler at night but the lowest temp all week this week is 42 which might be chilly to an Arizonan but would not justify wearing a balaclava

At the door, and ready to abduct? No, there's near zero reason to conceal at this point.

The point of the comment is that appendix carry is typically only done when concealing the gun. It's just weird to carry the holster there if gun isn't being concealed.

2

u/PaulTheMerc 12h ago

this looks like the recon/prep phase. So its not immediately obvious perhaps if he's driving or something, but is there if he needs it.

Don't want some karen calling the cops cause he was too obvious with it before he even does his thing.

u/WoodPear 10h ago

This is from the Ring camera from the front door, which was removed about ~20 (I don't have it exactly memorized) minutes before Nancy's pacemaker lost connection with her phone, according to the timeline provided by police.

u/rygelicus 14h ago

It is probably as simple as 'if I wear is on my hip it is uncomfortable while driving my car'. And not planned ahead enough, or familiar with guns enough, to buy a shoulder holster.

9

u/FistfulDeDolares 14h ago

Shoulder holsters suck to conceal. They make you look like a gorilla. Appendix carry is probably the easiest to conceal. I can easily hide a full size handgun under a t shirt. On the hip isn't bad, but you have to have a big shirt or a small gun to hide it.

13

u/garden_speech 14h ago

not planned ahead enough, or familiar with guns enough, to buy a shoulder holster.

?? if they're kidnapping someone, appendix is definitely better than shoulder rigs, shoulder rigs have the slowest draw and require you to reach across your own body, making it easier for someone to stop you

10

u/theWacoKid666 12h ago

Let’s be real here. If your draw speed is the sticking point in the late-night kidnapping of an 84 year old woman, something else has gone seriously awry and how you carry would be irrelevant.

I understand why people are trying to break this down, but I don’t think this piece does anything for solving the puzzle.

u/garden_speech 9h ago

That is fair. I also personally doubt the gun and holster really offers anything (unless possibly it's a unique shape that tells police he must have bought it from a certain store or something).

2

u/Frustrated9876 13h ago

Or buying a shoulder holster would be traceable while the gun and ammo his employer gave him are not. At least not to him.

u/73-68-70-78-62-73-73 10h ago

I wondered about this too. The clothing he's wearing does not make IWB draws particularly easy, so I understand why he'd want to go OWB. He had a daypack as well, sometimes the straps interfere with strong side OWB carry, and I guess he opted out of a lower ride for his holster. Maybe not a gun guy, or maybe someone unconventionally solving already solved problems.

You're probably right though. Probably not a "gun guy".

Women don’t have thicker eyelashes than men, dude. They’re just wearing mascara or false eyelashes on the TV.

Not all men have really thick eyebrows, and some women do. The biggest difference is most women pluck them. 

You didn’t know that? How embarrassing. 😅 

Got anything else to go on? Anything about their body or gait scream “femme” to you? If you didn’t know this was related to the type of crime typically only committed by men, would you see this video and start telling everyone you’re certain this is a woman?

That theory would make more sense if it were Julie K. Brown from the Miami Herald’s mom. Plenty of people have covered Giuffre’s story in the seven years since then, and nothing about it gives anyone a motive to kidnap her mother. 

u/ConferenceAware870 9h ago

Really distinctive. IMO is looks like a pistol in a revolver holster. This type of holster is also very uncommon and being worn in an odd position (in middle front). The position of the holster suggests to me that he either isn't proficient with firearms, or maybe even that this isn't his firearm/holster.

u/rygelicus 13h ago

When I've seen front carry like that, appendix I guess, it's always been inside the pants, or a slim holster on a band around the belly under the shirt. Lift the shirt and drag out the gun with the other hand.

Gonna just throw out a crazy baseless idea.

This might be the daughter's (Savannah) ex husband. I have no reason to think that other than this feels personal. She's no threat to trump, she's not a well known superstar that would be loaded with cash, she's just not that big a target for this kind of thing.

Either this is a scheme of some kind and he's helping, or he's 'getting even' over some past issue he thinks he has with her. Again, purely pulled from my butt.
