    It's the really quiet ones you gotta watch. Eh?

    Apparently this man had millions to blow. And likes his automatics which would not be too difficult to be purchasing provided he is mr clean with nothing at all to prevent a proceed with sale from ATF when he purchases one.

    What no one is saying is that when you purchase a automatic weapon under the class III tax stamp or a Silencer etc of that nature, there is a strict address given where that weapon will be kept. It absolutely has to stay at that address. It is not transferable to anyone in family upon death etc. (If it is a pre-1986 machine gun...) he had several addresses. *Shrugs. he must have had a Firearms license or something at the level of say a gun shop to move weapons around in his life...

    I learned that when the blah blah blah queens dominate certain news channels repeating something over and over for 12 hours rather than taking that time to expand on and educate people the little tidbits involved in automatic weapons and rather than educating, they concentrate on hype and bad things keeping the people rather stupid and not knowing anything.

    I know a little bit. But enough to stay out of the auto business other than a few rentals here and there... My grandfather and his unit in ww1 was the absolute first to fight with the then new BAR system against the Crown Prince's Infantry and did very well with them among other things. (Short bursts were better in battle than ripping off a whole magazine causing the enemy line to focus on BAR gunner...) one of his grandsons currently is or was a machine gunner himself with the airforce and has served overseas in the rockpile. I might give him a ring with a few questions. But I don't expect too much because stretch gets to play with the music in fire support.... eh....

    Got tired of the emotional porn on the major networks and stumbled upon c-span.

    Sen Markey (d-Mass) isn't even waiting for the bodies to be cold to go on the attack.

    Now that makes sense. It just goes to show that if we brainstorm we can come up with a rational conclusion to make sense out of something that doesn't seem to make sense when taken at face value.

    Chances are pretty good the CIA probably supplied the weapons.
    I guess we'll find out in the near future with any surprise gun legislation that gets passed.

    Silencers are going to be available to the masses very soon.
    And if this guy had permits for automatic weapons, he could have had silencer / flash suppression.
    They wouldn't have gotten him for hours.
    Bodies just would have been dropping.

    Kazynski was an MK ultra.

    Have you ever actually fired a suppressed weapon? They're NOT silent.

    Yes, and depends on the suppressor. I promise you there are some that you will only hear the slide.
