Their federal license is gone, permanently...
Registered and legal full auto MP5 is about $30,000 worth of gun...maybe more. I got to shoot one full auto once 40 years ago. I was impressed.
A bit foolish indeed. They bear all responsibility!
First clue....
Yeah, Chewbacca wasn’t a bear.
Was a good friend of mine.
I never understood a single word he said,
But he always had some mighty fine Ewok wine.
The H&K MP5 was one of the security weapons of choice at the king’s coronation not too long ago.
Shotgun versus a lot of flying lead in The Getaway with Steve McQueen:

Anyone actually know why The Getaway featured a High Standard K1200 18-7 Riot?
Reader reply was:
The High Standard Flite King #8104 Riot Standard came with a 20” barrel, but both the High Standard Flite King #8111 Riot Standard and the High Standard Flite King #8113 Riot Deluxe came with an 18-1/8” barrel. Both the #8111 and the #8113 18-7 pumps had 6+1 capacities. There was a pretty fair effort in that clip from Getaway to display reload as you go. Steve McQueen had the reloads in his right coat pocket. It seemed to me that he shot 4, shot 1, shot 1, reloaded 2, shot 1, reloaded 2, shot 1, shot 2, shot 3, reloaded 1.... Not perfect arithmetic and it was only a movie, but they tried harder than some of the Charles Bronson movies.

From what I just found, the going price for that rifle is between $20,000 and $30,000..........Doubt that fat heffer knows it and will likely sell it for drug money......

They found her (and the gun) today. She was a felon already so had that charge (felony in possession) charge added to the others. Someone recognized her. Stupid is as Stupid does!
I’m not sure how that works. The person in possession of a stolen full auto is subject to serious jail time if convicted and not of a protected class. The range operator might have a Class III License. Presumably BATF might pull it. The range might ask if the feds have ever had any weapons stolen...
Paywall
Thank goodness.
Interesting article too, as she used her dead sister’s ID to rent the gun. I found it hard to believe a range wouldn’t be checking IDs.
Hah! A sistah.
Preparing for the "Title 42 is dead" rush.
The Band of Gypsies will miss it

Weird, no paywall for me. You can use archive.is or archive.ph to bust ‘em.
They rented a MP5 to a dindu???
What could go wrong.
