Sipsey Street Exclusive: The curious case of Serial Number A6042075. What exactly did the ATF & DOJ tell the grand jury in U.S. vs. Clark? A tale of machine guns, a well placed protected snitch, insider influence, contradictory rule making, doctored reports and double-standard "justice."

By Mike Vanderboegh and "Ramsey A. Bear."

The assertion of federal power over guns and crime fit perfectly with Franklin D. Rossevelt's philosophy of using the government to protect ordinary American's from the hazards of modern society. . . the New Deal was nothing less than a radical retructuring of American government . . . Roosevelt portrayed gun control and crime fighting as simply one more element of the Neweal -- indeed, of the new America. . . "As a component part of that larger objective we include our constant struggle against the attacks of the lawless and criminal elements of our own populations." Because crime drained the economy, federal crime control, we argued, was essential for national recovery.

*Following the conversion, it was the same one machinegun albeit in a different configuration but nevertheless still one machinegun. The NFA is a tax statute and assesses tax on “machineguns,” per se, not models. The tax assessed and collected on every make, model, design, configuration of machinegun is set at the same uniform rate – $200.00 to register and $200.00 to transfer;*

I equate this to buying a AR15 or AR10 lower receiver and building what you want. The caliber and barrel length is not known on the 4473, just the lower. Later changing your platform to a different caliber and barrel will not be a new manufacture since the serialized lower stays the same.

Thanks for posting. If pre-meditated, agenda-driven, rogue unaccountable agents inside a bureaucracy aren’t punished to the fullest extent of the law, the bureaucracy needs to be dismantled. Totalitarian wannabees, regressive regulators, and citizen’s rights violators need to be relieved of their duties.

Just as Rossevelt (sic) Obama sought to expand the power and reach of the federal government over the economy, he determined to expand its power and reach over criminals citizens and their weapons. The man Roosevelt Obama tapped to to lead the push was his attorney general, Homer Cummings Eric Holder. A bald man with a round face and piercing blue eyes,…

Some thing never change. Well the eyes maybe…
