There were allegations of this a couple years back, but ATF is now charging someone with it:

The defendants accomplished this by “harvesting” serial numbers from older machine guns, which would be destroyed, and then welding those serial numbers onto larger, more expensive machine guns that they had manufactured. By so doing, they allegedly evaded the 1986 federal machine gun ban, which prohibited civilians from possessing or transferring machine guns manufactured before May 19, 1986. The indictment says this pattern of conduct involved 34 machine guns, allowing the defendants “to profit from the possession, transfer, and sale of machine guns that the defendants and others were otherwise prohibited to manufacture, possess, transfer, and sell.”

Stamp a registered MAC serial number onto an AR receiver = profit. ATF’s horrid lack of management of the NFRTR database contributed to this scam. And if I were the guys involved, I’d point that out at trial.

So says the Munroe Fall Police Chief:

Police Chief Scott Bellinger hopes new sound suppressers and residents’ input on the schedule for the police firing range can result in a quieter shooting practice for both Munroe Falls Police and residents this spring.

A meeting will take place March 8 at 6:30 p.m. at Munroe Falls City Hall.

Stow and Silver Lake officers, who also use the Munroe Falls range, will be present.

Bellinger said the goal of the meeting is to try to minimize the effects the Munroe Falls range has on the residents and their families by allowing them into the scheduling process for the range practices.

Sound suppression is the polite thing to do. Too bad the federal government makes that expensive and burdensome.

A deputy AG in Indiana was fired for saying that police should use live ammunition in dealing with protesters. This has people forgetting exactly how the police work and they are all butthurt over the comment. Roberta brings a gentle reminder:

Wake up and smell the reality: every time Officer Friendly deals with you in an official capacity, there’s live ammo involved; just because it doesn’t go “bang,” that doesn’t mean it isn’t in use.

Yes. It’s what they do. It’s their job. The AG’s comment was in poor taste due to his intent. But it is how the world works.

Over the years, Tom Humphrey has said a lot of dumb things. But this one is probably the dumbest. He’s addressing the TN assembly’s tendency to introduce and debate stupid laws. But, says Tom, that’s OK. They’re just blowing off steam. You know, just a little harmless fun with serious real world effects.

Look, sparky, when these idiots pass dumb laws (and some of them do pass), those laws have real world consequences that affect the citizens of this state. And that is not a laughing matter. And blowing off steam is not a good excuse. It’s ridiculous and you enabling that behavior is worse.

Jeanne Assam, the hero who helped stop a church shooter in Colorado, says she’s now been asked to leave the church because she is gay. The church denies it and I hope it’s not true. That’s now way to treat a lady or a hero.

Not sure what’s more disturbing here, the cavalier attitude or being flat out wrong on firearms training:

Civilians taking firearms training are typically coached, as a precaution against accidental discharge, not to have a round chambered in the weapon unless they intend to fire.

However, troopers and other law enforcement officers are trained to have a round chambered even when their weapon is holstered, so they are ready to draw and fire immediately when a life-threatening situation occurs.

Are they trained to keep their booger hook off the bang switch?
