Well since on one seems to know what Mike looks like. I'm going to say the same Mike M in the story is the same Grizzly Mike, who had his FFL revoked some time ago. I remember when that story circulated the gun show circuit.

I have bought mags from Mike and his family over the years at a number of Tanner Shows. His son is very knowledgeable about unusual mags that are hard to find. The kids all help out and are home schooled so they can travel to different shows. In all the years I have dealt with them they have never had any firearms for sale at their booth. This is the dealer that uses the pop rivet in all of his 15 plus round mags. I would think if they are being investigated for anything it is for selling high cap mags, including drums, that have been modified to only accept 15 rounds. But I don’t have any first had knowledge about their status at the Tanner.
It doesn't make any sense, there's not enough money in any of those transactions to risk any attention from the ATF.
I think the one article was dated 1999.
Found guilty of 16 federal felonies in 2001 and lost his appeal in 2001. Sentenced to 3 years in federal prison. Original spelling of last name is Meienberg; looks like there are records reflecting the change in spelling to Meinberg. Both spellings are associated with the same address.
Saw Grizzly Mike at the tanner today. No Mike or Ted. Kind of weird
