National Guardsman Convicted In Weapon Malfunction: A drill instructor
in the National Guard has been convicted in a Wisconsin federal court of
illegally transferring a machine gun after a rifle he loaned to a
student malfunctioned, setting off three shots before jamming...That
means now that anyone whose weapon malfunctions is subject to charges of
having or handling a banned gun, according to an expert witness who
reports that the particular problem is a well-known malfunction and was
even the subject of a recall from the manufacturer..."Basically if your
Ruger 10/22, Browning Citori Over and Under or Remington 11-87
malfunction and fire more than one round at a time; the ATF will now
consider it a machine gun," he wrote.
