Did Trump REALLY Get Hit With A Bullet?! FBI Director Says NO! Here's The Truth!

Published on August 8, 2024
Duration: 9:54

This video analyzes the wound sustained by former President Trump, comparing it to the ballistics of a DPMS Panther Arms AR-15 chambered in .223/5.56. The instructor demonstrates how this specific rifle and caliber, with its 1:8 twist rate, fires a stable bullet that creates a relatively small, direct wound channel, contrasting with assumptions of larger, tumbling wound effects. The analysis aims to debunk speculation by showing the wound is consistent with a direct impact from this type of ammunition.

Quick Summary

An analysis of a DPMS Panther Arms AR-15 in .223/5.56 caliber, featuring a 1:8 inch twist rate, suggests that the wound sustained by former President Trump in his ear is consistent with a direct impact from this type of firearm. The stable bullet trajectory minimizes tumbling, creating a smaller, direct wound channel.

Frequently Asked Questions

What firearm was analyzed in relation to former President Trump's ear injury?

The video analyzes a 2013 DPMS Panther Arms AR-15 rifle. This specific firearm is chambered in both .223 Remington and 5.56x45mm NATO, and its ballistics, including the 1:8 inch twist rate, are examined to understand potential wound characteristics.

How does the twist rate of an AR-15 barrel affect bullet stability?

The twist rate, such as the 1:8 inch twist on the analyzed AR-15, dictates how many rotations a bullet makes per unit of length. A faster twist rate, like 1:8, ensures the bullet spins more, stabilizing its flight path and leading to a more direct, less tumbling impact.

What is the difference between .223 Remington and 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition?

.223 Remington and 5.56x45mm NATO are similar but distinct. While a .223 can generally be fired from a 5.56 chamber, a 5.56 round may not safely fire from a .223 chamber due to differences in casing wall thickness and powder charge. The rifle analyzed is marked for both.

Can a 5.56mm bullet cause a small, direct wound like the one reported on President Trump's ear?

Yes, a 5.56mm bullet fired from a stable platform like an AR-15 with a proper twist rate can create a small, direct wound. The video demonstrates that when hitting thin tissue like an ear, the bullet may not tumble, resulting in a wound size consistent with its diameter, not a large tearing effect.
