For buying a fully auto M14 with scratched off serial numbers. Bought the gun in the early 80's. He identified with the weapon from his service, I think they should give the guy a break. https://www.foxnews.com/us/vietnam-...Fgj6mlQvRtImR2N-rjuO7JW1Iy4tJgz8pKFG7NXc

I guess it just depends what the law says as to the punishment he should have received. Personally, I don’t think what he did should be against the law but it is, so I would have given him the minimum. He broke the law. He knew he broke the law. His service in Vietnam can’t be factored into it because then, we the people aren’t all equal under the law. That’s a dangerous place to be.

anyone who saw combat in Nam ought to get some slack cut to him.

respect to the guy for his service, but you got to be borderline retarded to buy a gun with the serial number ground off..........particularly one that is already illegal to to own to begin with.
There are 3 certainties in an uncertain world:
1. All Politicians Are Liars 2. All Gun Laws Are an Infringement 3. Taxation Is Theft

Messing with ClassIII and the feds if you're not going to be legal is dumb. Play with fire, getting burned shouldn't be unexpected.

Should have gotten a slap on the wrist - significant fine and a lot of community service, maybe 30 days in jail. But 7 years is insane.

That is a lot of extra information that puts the case into a whole different light.
Still, I don't think someone should get 7 years just because they had pot and coke in their house and firearms at the same time.

Drugs should be a civil fine like a speeding ticket, IMO. Instead of costing tax payers millions upon millions in jail, it'd actually generate some money instead. (Edit : Probably still jail for the pushers though)
I feel like full-auto's should be plain class 3 just like SBR's and Suppressors. Considering it's pretty rare for any of those to be used in a crime, it makes sense to me.
Having a scratched out serial though.. That's just dumb on his part.

I support enforcing the gun laws we have. If they don't enforce the laws they just end up wanting to add more. My father served 2 years in Vietnam. I'm not sure what this guy's service has to do with anything. Just like life there are good people and chitty people in the military. Lots a vietnam veterans served proudly without becoming drug addicts. Yes I think the NFA laws need to be changed.

I have known SEVERAL Vietnam vets, one was a POW, and one was even a tunnel rat. If anyone had a reason to be an addict, it was them. Neither was though.

Neither was though. i know alot of veterans and most of them that are addicts were addicts before the military and they still are after being in the service was just a break but now they got a steady income from disability and early retirement to blow on dope.

I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.
