From someone:
anyone know where I can get my semi auto NEW auto ordinance machine gun fixed so it will fire faster.
My response:
If it’s semi-auto, it’s not a machine gun. If you try to turn it into one, that’s illegal.
So, wayward boyscout? ATF? Bloomberg cronie? Brady staffer?

Look at the headers on the e-mail. The full headers, not the condensed version. Every mail server that touched that message should have an entry in there.

I did that already. Nothing really leaps out. Comes from a IS provider. Looks to be from Outlook Express and a home computer.

Fishy as hell.

The answer to the question is fix your booger hook so it will yank faster.
Don’t give the kid crap for thinking a semi is a machine gun, isn’t that pretty much what we’ve been hearing from the media for years? This sucker needs to file a false advertising suit against the major media outlets.

I agree with Ninth Stage, work that finger faster. oooor throw it off a 10 story building that should make it go pretty fast. Joking joking.

The kid could try accelerating to about 900 fps, fire his Thompson straight ahead as fast as he can, then count the number of rounds he runs into. If he reaches a count of ten, that’s fast enough.

You never know who’s gonna rattle the cages to see what falls out. The doofuses (doofi?) at our local TV station send teens into a local gun show to see if a dealer would sell one a gun. You know the answer: nobody did. Still made the 6 o’clock news that teens were able to freely enter the show and walk around.

Once is co-incindence. Twice is suspicious. Three times is enemy activity.
1. The BATF came by for a talk.
2. Lot’s of .gov folks reading your blog.
3. Someone wants to to advise them on an illegal firearm activity.
Got a lawyer lined up?

Anyone know where I can get a browning single-shot heavy barrell push-button belt-fed pintle-mounted weapon?
