New details about gunman who attacked Navy base in Pensacola

Mohammed Alshamrani, 21, a second lieutenant in the Saudi air force who was in the United States for flight training, was able to buy a Glock 9 mm pistol from a Florida gun shop by taking advantage of aMohammed Alshamrani in a photo released by the FBI.

Using a hunting license, Alshamrani bought his handgun on July 20 at Uber's Lock & Gun shop in Pensacola, a source familiar with the purchase told ABC News.The FBI investigates the NAS Pensacola shooting in Floirda.Four months later, on Dec. 6, Alshamrani opened fire in a classroom at Naval Air Station Pensacola, killing Ensign Joshua Watson, 23, Airman Mohammed Haitham, 19, and Airman Apprentice Cameron Walters, 21. Eight other people were injured in the attack.

Sources told ABC News that investigators determined the shooting was likely a"terror" attack inspired by radical Islamic ideology.

Are the Republicans listening to this?

So, ummm.......why hasn't this loophole been closed?

This happened before about a year ago. A Utah Mayor was killed during that time. Now that this happened again, I'm wondering why? Why were these guys left alone and not chaperoned? Especially if this happened before. They should have never been left alone.

I’m all for restricting all non-Americans from buying guns, but the current mood seems to be to ignore immigration laws you don’t like.

Maybe this will get them to act

😯

Terrorists already have guns.

lol They finally figured out that our permissive laws make it easy for criminals and terrorists to get their hands on guns?

It's up to the seller to screen EVERYONE they sell to. Police yourselves. The decisions you make during the sale may have severe consequences not only to potential victims of a crime but to all legal law abiding firearms owners via legislation for the acts of a few.

Come on that is stupid, harder for a citizen to acquire a gun of any kind.

More guns, more guns....remember people are safer with more guns

Come on!!! You sure are working overtime to NOT report Barrs indictments! Thank God people know better. Pathetic!

Yes, let’s share this with the would-be terrorists

Change ur federal I’d .... driver’s license should suffice...?

Yeah no kidding. Whats the point of gun reform when they cant even enforce the laws in place.
