The Glock which caught Trump’s eye appears to have a threaded barrel, which means it is suppressor-ready. The specific pistol was CERAKOTED to commemorate his presidency.
An X user, @ericspracklen, noted that he believes he owns the same gun, which has “Trump 45th” emblazoned on one side of the slide and “Keep America Great” on the other.
Spracklen posted close-up photos of his pistol:
Pretty sure I have the exact same one… https://t.co/5jkFJTbgGg pic.twitter.com/YiAd4gz1Mu

Leading up to the 2016 election, Trump campaigned on the value of concealed carry and on June 7, 2015, Breitbart News reported that Trump was a lifetime member of the NRA and a concealed carry permit holder.
Editor’s note: This story has been updated to note that while Donald Trump said “I want to buy one,” he did not ultimately purchase the weapon he posed with.
