Machine-gun? Did it have a RPG attachment too?
Surprised they stopped w/ the ‘charges’ they made...They usually will load up enough to catch you on a jay-walking charge at the least.
So much for Federalism and Rights.
The case is being pushed in the national media as an 80% receiver manufacturing case.
Generally no mention of the prohibited possessor charges.
IMHO, this is being used to scare off machine shop owners from setting up tool rentals for people with 80% receivers. The man was a prohibited possessor, so they had him on that. It is probably why he did a plea bargain rather than go to a jury trial.

There are certain holes that are drilled in an AR receiver that would classify it as a machine gun. If your AR doesn’t have them drilled then it’s not a machine gun.
