Nice try. He simply notifies the PD that he will be running a belt or two at 9pm or whatever. It's just a heads up so that when the phone calls come in they have an answer for the Karins.

Aug 23 (Reuters) - A federal judge has dismissed charges against a Kansas man for possessing a machine gun, saying prosecutors failed to establish that a federal ban on owning such weapons is constitutional.
The decision
, opens new tab by U.S. District Judge John Broomes in Wichita on Wednesday appeared to mark the first time a court has held that banning machine guns is unconstitutional after the conservative-majority U.S. Supreme Court in 2022 issued a landmark ruling that expanded gun rights.
In that ruling, New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, the Supreme Court established a new test for assessing firearms laws, saying restrictions must be "consistent with this nation's historical tradition of firearm regulation."
The Supreme Court clarified that standard in June as it upheld a ban on people subject to domestic violence restraining orders having guns, saying a modern firearms restriction needs only a "historical analogue," not a "historical twin," to be valid.
Broomes, an appointee of Republican then-President Donald Trump, said prosecutors in Tamori Morgan's case failed to identify such a historical analogue to support charging him with violating the machine gun ban.
The U.S. Department of Justice can appeal the decision, which the gun safety group Everytown Law in a statement called "extreme and reckless." Prosecutors did not respond to a request for comment. Morgan's lawyer declined to comment.
Morgan was indicted last year on charges that he illegally possessed a machine gun and a machine gun conversion device known as a "Glock switch."
Congress first moved to limit machine guns through the National Firearms Act in 1934, which was enacted after the weapons became commonly used by criminals during the Prohibition Era. In 1986, it went further and barred possessing machine guns that were not lawfully possessed prior to that year.
Prosecutors said the weapons at issue in Morgan's case did not fall within the protections of the U.S. Constitution's Second Amendment, which guarantees the right to keep and bear arms for self-defense.
But Broomes disagreed, saying the "the machinegun and Glock switch are bearable arms within the plain text of the Second Amendment."
While prosecutors pointed to laws from the 1700s and 1800s barring the use of "dangerous or unusual weapons," Broomes said those historical examples focused on their use to terrorize the public, not simply possessing them in the first place.

I like that last part, but can see how it could be turned against you.

Don't assume. I think 4473, form 4, registrations, etc., are all 2A violations.

Fuck off with your assumptions. I'm not going to wait for laws/regulations to be changed for me to enjoy 2A, even with regulations. Doesn't mean I'm not fighting for change.

Unrelated but related other news, Massachusetts gets one right.


BOSTON, Aug 27 (Reuters) - Massachusetts' highest court on Tuesday struck down a state ban on carrying switchblades, saying a landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling requiring modern gun restrictions to be consistent with the nation's history and tradition covered other weapons too.
The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court held, opens new tab that a 1957 law barring people from possessing spring-release pocketknives commonly known as "switchblades" violated the right to keep and bear arms enshrined in the U.S. Constitution's Second Amendment.

The court reached that conclusion while dismissing a charge filed against David Canjura for unlawfully possessing a switchblade, which Boston police found when responding to a report of an altercation between Canjura and his girlfriend.
The justices' decision was based on a 2022 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that established a new test for assessing whether modern firearm restrictions comply with the Second Amendment by requiring them to be "consistent with this nation's historical tradition of firearm regulation."

The ruling, New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, was issued by the Supreme Court's 6-3 conservative majority and has led to a series of court rulings invalidating modern gun regulations.
The office of Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden, a Democrat, had argued that even after that decision, the Second Amendment's protections only extended to firearms and that knives could not be legally considered "arms."

Seven other states plus the District of Columbia categorically ban switchblades or other automatic knives, while two others impose blade length restrictions of less than two inches.
But Justice Serge Georges, writing for the 5-0 court, said the state was incorrect and that knives, like handguns, fit within the definition of arms as both are weapons that can be used by someone for offensive or defensive purposes during a confrontation.

"The Second Amendment extends to all bearable arms and is not limited to firearms," he wrote.
Georges cited the U.S. Supreme Court's 2016 decision to throw out a ruling by his court upholding a ban on stun guns. The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court later in 2018 said the ban violated the Second Amendment.
Georges said the state had failed to identify any laws regulating weapons akin to folding pocketknives in place at the time of the 2nd Amendment's ratification in 1791 or the ratification in 1868 of the 14th Amendment, which extended the Constitution's Bill of Rights to the states.

He said a review of history showed that since the colonial and Revolutionary War era, Americans had used knives for self-defense and that the folding pocketknife "played an important role, both as a tool and a weapon."
"Accordingly, the Commonwealth has not met its burden of demonstrating a historical tradition justifying the regulation of switchblade knives," Georges wrote.
Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell, a Democrat who had filed a friend-of-the-court brief supporting the switchblade ban, in a statement called the ruling disappointing.
"This case demonstrates the difficult position that the Supreme Court has put our state courts in with the Bruen decision," she said.
Spokespeople for Hayden and Canjura's attorney had no comment.
The case is Commonwealth v. Canjura, Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, No. SJC-13432.

For Canjura: Kaitlyn Gerber of the Committee for Public Counsel Services

Was that shit even being enforced anymore? They've been banned here for years and years but you can walk into any milsurp store and buy them all day long. Same with other banned shit like brass knuckles.

edit: Obviously they enforced it in this case, but broadly speaking how often does it happen.

My guess, as a stand alone charge, probably never. Rather usually an add-on charge to some other crime. What it did do was eliminate a bunch of cool stuff from being sold in stores. At least when I was of an age that wanted to be able to buy it. Could care less about that stuff anymore.

Years ago, we passed a law that said any suppressor that was made in Kansas and sold in Kansas for use in Kansas was not subject to the NFA and the $200 tax.

One guy started making a ton of them, and it didn't turn out well for him. I'll let someone else be the first on the FA front.

They put all of it under the concealed carry a few years back. It's never been illegal to own. Just carry.

I reached the age where I stop laughing at the people still trying to buy flip phones. I may not want one, but I get why some might.

I have yet to run into a situation where taking a second to open a simple folder knife greatly impacted my life.




Auto blades? I can see leaning over a fender to work in the engine bay, my leg pushed the knife against the car releasing the blade to promptly cut my junk off from the confines of my pocket. I dont hang around with Sandy, so that event would be a significant negative in my life. All risk, minimal reward.

My brother in law gave me a spring loaded knife as a gift. You needed to release a safety with a finger and then press the button on the opposite side with your thumb before it would extend
It was surprisingly handy.
Then one day it just stopped doing the thing cause it was a cheap knife and I abused it too much.

Why the interest in an OTF knife? I have several auto knives, and the axis locks are the most solid lockup. I've never used an OTF one however. Without knowing any better, it seems the lockup is a weak point with them. I don't know.
