The alleged assassin who investigators say killed Charlie Kirk was obsessed with guns from a young age.

Tyler Robinson, 22, was named Friday as the alleged killer who shot Kirk as the conservative influencer held a rally at Utah Valley University on Wednesday.

In social media posts from Robinson's family obtained by Daily Mail, Robinson was seen enjoying guns throughout his childhood and appeared to frequently attend shooting ranges.

In one image from when Robinson appeared to be a teenager, he was seen posing with an M2 Browning 50. calibre machine gun, another showed him posing with a scoped rifle.

Facebook posts from his mother showed Robinson and his two younger brothers at gun ranges and military events, both registered Republicans.
