Another problem for the gun-control crowd

https://pjmedia.com/trending/2015/12/4/atf-says-weapons-used-in-san-bernardino-shooting-were-illegal-in-california

The media proudly reports that the firearms were purchased legally. They are trying to create the narrative that the current gun laws allowed this to happen. They want you to know: "Hey, this was all legally done. We need more laws to stop this from happening again."

But not so fast. It may be true that these guns were purchased legally, but they were not used legally and in fact, they were modified in violation of the California firearms laws, says the ATF.

While they were originally sold legally, with magazine locking devices commonly known as bullet buttons, the rifles were subsequently altered in different ways to make them more powerful, according to Meredith Davis, a special agent with the ATF.

The Smith & Wesson rifle was changed in an attempt to enable it fire in fully automatic mode, while the DPMS weapon was modified to use a large-capacity magazine, she said.

Those alterations made the weapons unlawful under California’s ban on assault weapons, which bans guns with magazines that can detach for quick reloading.

The state legally allows the sale and ownership of assault weapons that have fixed magazines.

Ehh, I can see them flipping that and tightening the restrictions on detachable magazines.

Doesn't seem like they got many, or any, mag changes in. 60-some rounds fired at the scene, 70-some fired from the SUV was what I heard during the press coference the other day I think. Sounds to me like they emptied both long guns and then some from the handguns.

Lack of training. Probably counting on the hand of allah to guide them.

OK, my head literally exploded after watching this. I'm barely able to post this due to the brain material all over the monitor.

Here's the thing. Manufacturers are allowed to build them that way with what's called a bullet button.

That is to say, you take the tip of a button, you press, of a bullet, you press a button, and it turns your semi-automatic legal weapon into an illegal assault weapon, and apparently that's what happened here except it failed when the killers tried to do it.

There is actually some truth to the second part. Some folks I know who've spent time actually fighting these crazies on their turf have told me that's why you see them hip firing their AK's all the time, or firing without aiming in general. They actually believe allah will guide their bullets.
