Timothy John Watson of Ransom, West Virginia, was arrested by federal agents this week for selling full-auto AR-15 sears disguised as “portable wall hangers” from a website dubbed portablewallhanger.com (still up as of 11/5 @ 2:07PM).
The product is ostensibly designed to hang keys, lanyards, and other small objects in a place where they can be easily accessed because, according to the site, “searching for your keys really sucks!”
I thought that its not illegal to own these? It becomes an issue when you install them into a lower, right? What ever happened to Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness?
Owning one is "constructive posession". That is making the assumption that you intend to install it and you still need a 3 position safety a full auto bolt carrier, and a deep pocket lower. But, have they proven that it works? Being plastic I would think it would just break and foul up the trigger. Making it a replica and not an actual sear.
Wtf is a Boogaloo Boys? Seriously? Are they making up gangs again?
ReplyDeleteSite's a 404ing now. Feds should have kept it up to see how many they could have trapped.

2nd ammendment supports it, but they don't know you can hit shit on full auto. Only useful in a wall of fire.
ReplyDeleteThe dude that wrote that 'story' is a flipping moron.
