All Seth Horvitz wanted was a Westinghouse 39-inch LED television. Instead, he got a high-caliber, semi-automatic assault rifle.
The Washington resident, who had ordered the television through a third-party vendor on Amazon.com, first realized that something wasn't quite right when a long, narrow box showed up at his apartment Tuesday, DCist reported.

So THAT’s where the high-powered assault rifle I ordered is.

If the rifle was “illegal to keep” and “illegal to transport” in DC then I’d figure it was either a select fire or the cop realized he had a kick ass new gun...

A high caliber would produce too much recoil for most folks in a semi-automatic self-defense weapon. Maybe it's a good rifle for hunting or defense against larger predators.

Horvitz’s name and address were on the mailing label. But inside the box, an invoice contained the address of a Pennsylvania gun shop.
Meanwhile, a gun dealer in PA asked his staff, “Which one of you morons ordered us a TV?

Since Amazon doesn’t sell artillery, this seller must have been doing the gun business on the side. Anyhow the wrong label got stuck on the box. In a sane country they’d just send him postage to return it and that would be that. Instead they treat these silly guns (which sans ammo cannot shoot any more than your little boy’s finger can) like nuclear hazardous waste.

Yeah, he could have just called up the Pennsylvania dealer and told him his gun was here, did he have the TV there? That if he brought the TV he would swap them no questions asked.

PA is as close as a 90 mile trip to the capital (depends on where in PA it is, of course). I still say he shoulda called the dealer not the cops... a little hush hush trip thru Maryland....

That’s a nice looking rifle.

Is it true that the return address said: “Dept. of Justice”?
