He should have known enough to make it inoperable, at least temporarily.
No problem, the Feds would just fix it and proceed with the prosecution. They have done this to numerous demilled weapons.
Exactly - he obviously isn’t the brightest bulb in the pack...
So - what ever happened to soldiers being able to bring home “souvenirs of their service”? Lots of GIs from WWII not only brought home, but also MAILED home everything from rifles to lighters ashtrays. Lots of stuff...
He shouldn’t have to make it inoperable. The MG ban needs to die a horrible death and the NFA needs to go away. That would solve the problem nicely and bring Federal Law into compliance with the Constitution. Sadly, we’re going to have to jam a SCOTUS decision on this up their backside to get it.
And if SCOTUS finds that the MG ban and the NFA are Constitutional, that will be when the fun begins because we’re going to slap the leftists with the decision on every other Civil Rights front.
