Harris Owns A Glock Gun, She Tells CBS's '60 Minutes'

Crime and Justice News

Vice President Harris said that she owns a Glock gun during an interview with CBS's "60 Minutes" Monday. Harris said she has fired the gun at a gun range and has had it for "quite some time." Harris had said that she was a gun owner in her debate against former President Trump, USA Today reports. Harris acknowledged that she had a gun when she was a U.S. Senator and launched her 2019 bid for the Democratic nomination in 2020. “I own a gun for probably the reason a lot of people do — for personal safety,” Harris said. An aide said Harris purchased a handgun years before her statement and that it was locked up. In a campaign event with Oprah Winfrey, Harris joked about using the weapon. "If somebody breaks into my house, they’re getting shot," she said.


New York Police apparently were to revoke Trump's state gun license after his conviction on 34 felony counts for falsifying business records. Trump’s active concealed carry permit was suspended in April 2023 after his indictment on the charges. The specifics of Trump’s license, including what weapons he may or may not be licensed to have, are not readily accessible due to a confidentiality request on his application. Trump declined to be interviewed by "60 Minutes."
