Not that difficult really. $2K for the ARs, $1k for two handguns, $1k for the GoPro cameras, $500 for the ammo, and Google for the "know how" to make bombs, etc. So you figure a little more than a month of pay to afford all of the supplies. Not sure what type of body armor he had, civilians usually can't purchase it. But even so, he can get it on the black market for roughly $2k. A lot of times people mistake tac-vests for body armor, it looks very similar.

I know a guy that works at 7-11 making $8 an hour and he owns several AR-15s, at least 3 AK-47's, and a shit ton of ammo.
