I could never figure out why Randy Weaver delivered an actual sawed-off shotgun to an entrapment scheme... Rather than a pack-o-hacksaw blades. But as posted above, irrational people do irrational things because they are irrational. And I guess there is just no figuring out why... ever

Weaver said the shotgun he delivered was lawful.

He won a settlement against the government, and was never convicted of the shotgun charge.

I think the discrepancy was "where" the barrel began as a question of legality. Naturally ATF said illegal.

IIRC he did win a judgement ($100k), but was fund guilty on the original charge.
