What a fucking joke.

Well, in the eyes of the ATF (and assuming the charges that Vickers plead guilty to are accurate) Vickers (and associates) IS the big fish…

Totally a sting. See my post above from the article.

Yeah, this wasn’t the ATF knocking on his door because he bought 2 of the same pistol at the same time…

There are two pathways for ATF agents. 1. Chasing career violent felons thru the streets until they are cornered and then engaging them in mortal combat with pistols. 2. Sitting in an air-conditioned office conspiring with fellow travelers on how to use law-fare with the full force of the federal government to ruin the lives of citizens who pose no threat to anyone.

You will never encounter the few agents who have gravitated to the former pathway.

But fair warning. For the past 15 years, the ATF has recruited, and has promoted 1000s of agents who gravitate to the latter pathway. And they are luxurating in those offices carrying rusty pistols conspiring to apply whatever law they can imagine to imprison you for whatever promotes their career.

Plan accordingly.

What does Trident have to do with your point? Who are they?

While the above may well be true, Youtube is chock a block full of SOTs showing off their cool post ‘86 nontransferable machine guns. SOTs should know the laws, and while we don’t have to agree with them, we must accept that the ATF is paying attention when it comes to the NFA.

Falsifying letters to illegally import machine guns for personal enjoyment and/or resale? That’s not walking the line. That’s flaunting it while submitting paperwork to the ATF, telling them what you are doing.

The collective GunTube sphincter just shut so tight you couldn’t push a greased BB through it.

 

[Bullfrog08]

Shall not be infringed!!!!! I get so confused on these deals. I must be a fucking idiot! Was this not an "arm", that was being "kept".

Thank you. The above is indeed true.

And have you not learned anything in the last 5 years about the folly of believing anything served to you in a ATF, DOJ, FBI, CNN, press release?

Anything? Anything at all?

 

[Kadams1563]

Well they sound like they were actually doing some dumb shit and played with fire for years.

Crazy as hell.

Then LV just plead guilty for that plea agreement. He just really screwed his “buddies”.

Yeah he played with fire and so did his buddies and they knew what they were doing. Importing things he shouldn’t have and not doing at least one demonstration is fucking foolish especially with small PDs. Add in the Importation and no serial number stuff and you’re just a fukn idiot. Oh, don’t piss off your wife either because that will bite you too. It sucks bad but the feds don’t see it that way.

maybe he should have collaborated with Theis on his shenanigans.

 

[Animal357]

I keep seeing stuff about Theis, but I don’t know the story. Can anyone enlighten me?

 

[Marine52]

Unfortunate naive and gullible guys that just don’t understand the times we live in. That’s like supplying food and arms to the Jewish ghettos in 1940 Germany as the Geheime Staatspolizei (Gestapo) watch your every move.

 

[TxWelder35]

Can some one point out the “victims” of these heinous crimes to me please?

Should have sold them all to the cartels and it all would have been well and good as long as they kicked the 10% up to the big guy

Anything that prevents me from open-carrying a short-barreled machinegun suppressed with steel-cast bullets is a blatant violation of my second amendment rights.

Anything over 250K is common use

There are strict controls on the transfer of machine guns in the U.S. but there are still about 630,000 legally owned fully-automatic weapons in the country

Actual? I know most of the story but I must have missed the lawn mower part.

Some say it lost components to buy drugs, but others say he’s still mowing lawns to this day.

 

[jroberts1968]

I think this is the tip of the iceberg. I see them getting these Demo guns out of circulation. Eforms it sounded great but like smartphones there is always an alternative reason and it wasn’t To speed things up.

This.

Whether or not the laws are right, or you like them, we're stuck with them until we change them. If you flaunt fresh meat in front of a hungry dog youre likely to get bit.

Which part is fabricated? The charges or the guilty plea to those charges?

True, but the NFA exists and all of the bluster about Bruen hasn’t changed that fact.

Bruen decision makes NFA unconstitutional.
Anything over 250K is common use

Are there 250,000 of any specific model of machine gun on the registry?

........ foreign, and domestic.

From Canadistan, with love…

 

[NoDopes]

The reference case law on that isn't a specific "model". Supreme Court just said "stun guns" are in common use.

Which side are you arguing for again?

I wish I knew either way…

Personally, hoping for the tainted drugs with fentanyl option

“And he rode off into the sunset… On a zero turn lawn mower.”

Sounds like the epilogue to a Hallmark Channel tv movie. Probably with James Garner in the leading role…

Thats why they should've just done what me and my neighbor do to show off in tiktok.
Just buy whatever demilled cool shit you want, reweld them bitches and machine whatever trigger/sear parts you need, etc. No paperwork, FFL/SOT, or tax stamp needed!

On a more serious note- cliff notes(tard version for those of us with fetal alcohol syndrome) on what Mr Vickers did?

Or just like follow the laws and they won't come knocking. Obviously, he committed some serious crimes that he plead guilty to. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Even after he pleads guilty, he will get a pardon.

And I'm sure they are using all of their resources to get these ghetto FFLs and their Glock switches.......

Yeah I’m pretty sure etiquette is to at least take your CLEO buddy who signed the letter for your new toy and his buddies out to enjoy it on the house with a couple complimentary cases of ammo

This is what happens when you try to break the law legally.
If they'd wrapped the guns in millions of dollars worth a fentanyl and had 350 Ecuadorians walk it across the border, no one would have bothered them.
