This is an AR-15 assault rifle, nearly identical to the one the Washington, D.C. snipers used to create so much terror over the past few months. We bought it for cash at a local gun show recently, in less time than it takes to fill the banana clip. No background check, no paperwork. We own an un-traceable weapon. Bodies and blood filled morgues from Washington, D.C. to Tacoma, Washington. More than a dozen victims used as human target practice. More than a dozen families left to mourn. Federal agents can't find any records as to exactly how suspected snipers John Muhammed and Lee Malvo acquired their military-style killing machine. The reality is: it doesn't really matter. KIRO Team 7 Investigators discovered anyone can legally buy an AR-15 semi-automatic. Felons, guys angry at their wives, mental patients -- All are welcome here at the Chehalis gun show. |

"Bannana clip" ? - God, how I hate these liberals. My email to them.....ahem, To whom it may concern: Listen up you little twinks. I dont care what you've 'discovered' in your little trip to the gun show. Who would buy an AR at a show anyways? I'm glad you got poked for overpaying for your rifle. Furthermore, I own more guns than Jesus, more MAGAZINES (not bannana clip you latte drinking motherf@%!%) than Moses and enough ammo to support the army of a Third World country. So, I tell you what, you put that 'demon' up on the shelf and stand around the water cooler saying, "Boy thats evil" - and I'll keep buying...and when the day comes YOU tell me I cant have them anymore - RUN, dont walk - even further west! [;)] Okay, so maybe I didnt mail it |

When I read the article I tried to place myself in the shoes of someone who was not convinced of either side of the argument. My conclusion was that the article was intentionally deceptional by failing to mention that private citizen to citizen firearms transfers in the same state are perfectly legal to perform. But then again if they mentioned this their "shock" factor to scare the soccer moms would be greatly reduced. [:(!] I guess I'm just preaching to the choir here though. |

He was not just a vender that bought space at the gun show but was a dealer in firearms for a living! Right If such is the case he can't make a private sale! If those rifles were on the book then they can't be sold as such private party to private party,and must go in the records! Laws were broked here if that is what happened! Bob [:D] |
