THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG

[Gil Boyd]

Read the facts surrounding this little "try on". He alledgely had a Sig Sauer P226 blank firing handgun, with a barrel converted to fire live ammunition was the first weapon to be discovered, which he thought any sniffer dog would locate which it did, but didn't expect a rumage crew to take his car apart thereafter.
Good result nevertheless.......begs the question who were these intended for??

At the risk of being "political", it just shows that the gov't can pass all the laws they want and it only affects the law abiding. I saw a picture of the Andersen Arms AR this morning that was used in the early Sunday morning shooting in Dayton, Ohio. It's either a pistol variant modified with the addition of the rifle buttstock or a rifle with a 10" barreled upper receiver installed. Both alterations are illegal and a felony unless the weapon is registered with the DoJ first as an SBR, (Short Barreled Weapon), which entails a thorough background investigation and $200 tax stamp. My point is that the shooter was already committing a felony crime under U.S. law before he ever pulled the trigger. Just owning the combination of parts without the proper ATF registration is a felony. Maybe it'll be aired when someone points it out, maybe not. Enough said.
