I hadn’t seen this yet, but it ties in prety well with the last couple of posts. Aaron Zelman of the JPFO interviewed Len Savage a couple of times last year. The transcrips are online: Part 1 and Part 2
Some snippets:
The government asserted that Mr. John Glover of North Carolina possessed an illegal machine gun. … What basically happened is the government came in, seized all of his firearms and tested them, and they asserted that one of his firearms was a machine gun.…out of 12 tests, it would only do it twice and only with one particular brand of ammunition and not every time with that brand of ammunition.
He [BATFE agent in the Firearms Technology Branch] admitted that he didn’t even disassemble the rifle to find out why it was doing this, what it was doing, but since it had more than one shot go off with the pull of a trigger, it was a machine gun. Under that definition, a malfunctioning double-barreled shotgun would be a machine gun.
You can actually watch the field tests in the JPFO video BATFE Fails the Text.
There’s much much more. I’d urge you to go read it all.
