Interview with Colorado Springs Gazette published
10/21/2017:
Katelyn bought a gun for protection. Daniel just got mad, she said. ...She's also not sure Daniel ever had access to her .22 caliber rifle, which she kept locked in the trunk of the car.
On the few times he'd leave them to find a new campsite, Katelyn said she often kept the gun with her for protection. She can't say whether she removed it every time Daniel took the car.

"Interviewer: Now the rifle...When did you buy the rifle?
KN: Um...around my birthday, so it was like the first week of September.
Interviewer: Of this year?
KN: Yes sir.
Interviewer: Now, did he have access to any other uh, like a pistol or rifle?
KN: Well we didn't have a pistol, we just had the .22 rifle....and he had access to it as much as I did."

So in less than a week's time she went from being unsure DN ever had access to the gun to DN having as much access as she did. (MOO: that's a pretty abrupt about-face. Wonder what prompted it?)
Short timeline of the .22 rifle presence per above:
First full calendar week of Sept was 9/3 - 9/9/2017. Or if referring to 1st week as first 7 days then 9/1-9/7/17.
So per KN gun was purchased sometime between 9/1-9/9/17.
TW went missing 9/14/2017
DN arrested 9/25/2017 on a weapons charge Woodland Park, CO
