    Huge weapons arsenal??? That's a good one. I've got more than that in my gun safe and it is by no means considered huge, excessive or even slightly out of the ordinary.

    Sensationalism, at its finest.
    If 4 firearms is an arsenal.......


    To be fair, any standards in journalism are pretty low these days.

    Whats the bet that none of them are capable of Select-fire, switching between Semi-Auto and Full Auto?

    And therefore not "Assault Rifles" at all?

    Actually I did read years ago that there is more steel in a Glock than there is in some Saturday night specials. That slide is solid, well the Model 21 certainly is.

    Well that wouldn't be a very good bet to take because the article clearly says they are semi auto. Not that reporters would know anyway.

    Exactly - I dunno, I'm getting really irritated by people calling Semi-Autos - 'Assault Rifles'

    Does that irritate you more.

    Without the meth it would just have been a collection of weapons.

    With the meth it’s an arsenal.

    This is an interesting read....chickens coming home to roost.

    Ahhh now that's the real thing. In latter day terminology the FN FAL is a "battle rifle", it's not just another poofy assault rifle.

    We used to have access to an L4 LMG.
    Also strangely 22 chambered Mark 4 Lee Endfeilds
    The Brits coveted Argie FN FALs as they were full Auto rather than Rapid.

    My Brother has a 1910 401 Winchester semi Auto Carbine. Tht was my dads Amongst his collection of AK's M16s etc
    I never got a chance to shoot it as the ammo was unobtainable but now you can mod SKS/AK ammo for them

    7.62x39 converted to 401

    It's an inept load of journalism to begin with, and the judge saying "massive arsenal" is also badly misleading. Three rifles and parts for another? Someone is 'avin a laugh! Surely!

    I read the headline and immediately thought of a couple of people I know who have over a thousand firearms in their collections. Not this drug dealer with THREE!

    In total I have around 3000 rifle and pistol rounds. It doesn't go as far as some (fake news media) would have you think.

    I might normally have something similar, but the phrase "some assembly required" applies to some of them.

    This is from the Houston Police who are apparently concerned at the safety aspect. A guy I knew in Virginia said it was illegal where he was too, but the illegality was exceeded by the popularity. At midnight there was all sorts of stuff being fired into the sky.
