And yet fully automatic AK-47s and AR-15s are NEVER used in committing crime.

Why do I get the feeling this is a bogus article, unless the writer has gangbanger friends who he can run to just to cook up a quick anti-gun story?

I’m not sure of the point — is he suggesting that we outlaw illegal guns?

That is about how long as it takes to get your throat slit in England, if you contact the right people.

Snip:
It’s not hard to get your hands on illegal guns and rifles in America

That word 'illegal' is exactly why gun control 'laws' do not keep guns out of the hands of criminals. Only law abiding citizens.

Well, not that “they’re” telling us about out of panicking the public at large. Hey, nick. Turn in your papers assclown. You’re done here. Probably ought to be arrested for this little adventure. Will he be? Nah.

Looking at these highly dangerous weapons, I felt deeply disturbed – despite being a veteran and having served in Iraq. There’s something about seeing these weapons here in the US and not in a combat zone; it makes it all too unsettling,

He's some sort of disgraceful, simpering pansy. I wonder if "yellow" makes him sad?

I could buy an AK-47 in about 10 minutes at my local gun store. Two hours is pretty slow service.

Should this guy be charged with a crime? Conspiring to procure illegal firearms? Just curious.

It’s not difficult to get your hands on illegal firearms in US, so let’s make more illegal? Of course.

It’s obviously easy for people with ties to underworld to get illegal guns.

Cannon or equalizer.

I think I remember Mildred Krebs’s list of gun nicknames.

He could have gotten a gun in even less time in most states. He's describing a private sale. It's not illegal.
