    This might be a hot take, but considering how authoritarian the government is, regardless of who’s in control, and how many fudd bootlickers love to be RSOs, I wouldn’t test based shit at a range at all.

    Do that shit in private out in the wilderness.

      I think very few gun owners know the difference between a FRT and a machine gun. Especially when you just hear BRRRT one lane over.

      The RSO probably didn’t care to know either did the fudd thing.

      I’m guessing the ATF/Met Police raided him cause someone reported a machine gun at the range.

      Our lawyer friend crying wolf only posted the first page of the charging document. The last thing that page says is they got a warrant for his electronic devices.

      Who knows maybe he was printing Glock switches and other actual machine guns. Until we get that whole document, and see what they are charging him with, it’s kind up in the air.

      Know your range first of all if that’s where you have to shoot. Secondly, don’t put anything you made inside a range rental. That’s not yours to modify. Thirdly, don’t be dumb (or maybe this should be first?).

        I will re-iterate, if you want to be dumb/based, do it far away from other people :D
