In addition to the arrests, U.S. Marshals Service reported that the following items were seized or recovered: 26 firearms (10 of which were fully automatic rifles), 1.3 kilograms of methamphetamine, 739 grams of cocaine, six stolen vehicles and $89,087 in illicit funds.
Well, I do see third pins, so I think they got the automatic part right! Rifles? Hardly.
These look like 80% receivers built on PSA kits. Unit cost probably somewhere around $400. Built by someone who knows what he's doing.
Why aren't there "MACHINE GUNS" and "GHOST GUNS" narratives in the story? Because the very presence of these guns in CO highlights the ineffectiveness of gun control. Yes, we have bangers in Colorado running around with FULLY AUTOMATIC GHOST MACHINES GUNS.
Meanwhile, us law-abiding plebs can't (legally) purchase standard cap magazines. And the avg CO sheeple thinks that's just fine.
Operation Triple Beam Colorado’ takes 156 fugitive gang members off the streets... and 10 full autos

A win for the good guys. I assume the picture of the 10 ARs on the table are the 10 "full auto" weapons they refer too. They appear to be unfinished.... maybe 80% lowers? Curious to hear the full story on this one.
Glad to know the NFA and our gun laws are keeping these items out of criminals hands.... /s
