Mexican army doesn't use AR-15s, and definitely not AR-15s with big American flags on the lower receiver. This is the shooters stash:

“That would only work if both were registered FFLs.”

No, neither the buyer or seller were FFLs. I believe the gun had to stay with an FFL during the application process.

Requirements to Purchase an NFA item: Quick List
Appropriate Forms Filled and Filed
$200 or $5 dollar check or money order.
Clean Background check
Two Fingerprint forms filled out and submitted.
Passport style photograph submitted.
CLEO has to be notified.

Usually the media gets it wrong, but sometimes they get it right, like in the recent Sacramento shooting, and Freepers mocking the press got egg on their face. Today, Freepers are right. There is video of this shooting, and it is 100% semi-auto.

Video from the shooter:

Don’t fully automatic guns have to be made before 1986 or so? He must have bought an M16 A1 (soldiers used to call them the M16 Mattel) or an early M16 A2 with a carry handle.

This is the black nationalist who hated whitey, right? Disappeared down the memory hole as soon as that got out.

Oh Yeah.

It was a MAC 10. Nine millimeter I believe. He paid about $8,000. It was a sell between friends. You can buy one of these (although this is a .380) if you want a vey expensive toy:

“If the shooter is black, down the memory hole it goes.”

That is 2022 speak for Oriental.

No licensure required for automatic weapons. Just needs to be a pre 1986 receiver and an NFA form. Takes about 6 months. There is no such thing as a class III license. Only for an SOT and an SOT can produce autos for police and their own use. Costs $500 a year to be an SOT manufacturer.

I can write my initials in full auto with a AK-47. Just takes training and practice

The pics suggest a gay or trans hispanic yoote, replete with lipstick. I have a hard time believing his birth name was “Raymond Spencer”. Shooter’s backstory and source of finance would be interesting to know, but I doubt we will ever see it.

"They need to make a law against murdering people with automatic weapons"

Ha, ha. When I was in the military I shot a M16 in full automatic more than several times and it took some serious practice to anything past 25 yards. The first round went kind of where you wanted it, then the rest when high and to the right (just like the saying). From my experience, I would rather face a semi trained rifleman with an automatic weapon that the same person with a semiautomatic weapon.

During WWII, the British realized the same and made a semi-automatic STEN and the hit rate went up.

A fully automatic rifle is quite hard to use on full auto and accuracy suffers.

The M16 in rock-and-roll is a dedicated mountain climber.

I found this site:

https://gunsclan.com/product-category/machine-guns/

Pretty interesting stuff, but they have so many guns I’m not sure it’s legit.
