I don’t see any evidence that any of their customers felt defrauded. These honorable gentlemen sought to wade through the blatantly unconstitutional morass of gun control laws, and create some valuable firearms that collectors can use and enjoy.
Let me repeat: They were CREATING VALUE.
And the fedgov prefers its government monopoly on machine guns, so it ruins these men who have never committed a real crime against others in their lives.
I know people who have (legally) taken an old HK that was licensed as a machine gun, and taken the legal key element and installed it on a rare belt-fed HK parts kit. Lots of work, but it added $20,000 of value, and the buyer was delighted.
You seem overly affectionate with the worst of gun control laws.
I understand that.
I can CREATE VALUE by rolling back the odometer of my '99 Ford and selling a fraudulant product.
