And, he could have purchased either rifle at any gun store in TX as he had no priors.
The REASON he had no priors is because the US Army gave him an Honorable Discharge instead of Courts Martial for stealing the panties of a female Sargent.
Universal background checks will only work if there's universal registration...and we all know how that ends up.
Misguided youth: If only it weren’t so hard to buy a book or a computer
Both the 1934 Automatic Weapons Ban and the 1968 Gun Control Act were violated.
The officers’ loved one should sue FB for providing support for a terrorist.
Ban Facebook
“killing machine” There’s a new one.
Obviously, Facebook should be immediately banned as a terrorist supply network!
I thought it was an SKS, not an AK-47. I know, I know, the SKS is just an AK-47 knock-off, but the SKS is cheaper by a long shot.
Don’t know about how easy it is to modify versus a proper AK, however. It might be that some elbow grease with a pair of pliers could turn a semi-automatic to an automatic fairly easily.
I vaguely remember SKS’s having flaws that made it shoot short bursts accidentally, maybe a tweak to the flaw could make it spew rounds like a water hose.
I thought he used a single action rifle.
Someone help.
I’ve bought and sold guns privately online through websites such as armslist.com, and have never thought twice about it. To me, it’s the same as selling a car. The car could be used, intentionally, to kill or maim people just as easily as a gun can. I do prefer to only deal with people that hold a CHL/LTC, but I don’t have to. If I had sold to this guy would I have felt absolutely devastated about it now, yes, of course. But that doesn’t lay any blame at my feet for doing so. He could have easily gotten it from any other number of places. I say this as a person that had an uncle that was a police officer and was murdered in the line of duty here in the Dallas area several years ago.
This article pertains to nothing and the NY Post knows it.
It knows that AK was not used in Dallas so why write the story other than cause trouble.
Crews needs to chill out and certainly get the F off Facebook
Cue for anti-gunners to push for universal background checks. It doesn’t bother them that the murderer could have bought the weapon at a gun store because there were no red flags that would have stopped him.
Makes no difference though. He would have bought th weapon on the black market. He had a plan.
There is a portion of a barrel and forestock to the right of the Saiga AK-74. Anyone know what that might be?
Ban Facebook!!
