Louisiana man was in possession an "Assault RIfle" in luggage at Airport

[La26]

Imagine the look on the TSA Officer's face when he discovered a 52 year old man from Jefferson Louisiana had a Palmetto Arms "Ar style rifle", and over 150 rounds of ammunition in his carry on luggage at the New Orleans Airport. The weapon was loaded with a 30 round magazine, and also had several other loaded mags in the carry on. Can't link the news article, don't have the IT knowledge. I'm sure someone will do it quick enough for me-Thanks in advance !

Thanks for the link. I gotta get my grandkids to show me how to do that one day.

The bright spot is he can put off worrying about the brace ruling.

For the love of Pete can somebody please tell this absolutely mentally unstable people this is an Armalite Rifle “AR” 15 not an assault weapon….. Don’t these people have to have some sort of education to get these jobs????? Poor guy probably forgot what bag he had it in….

Sounds like this guy was just your run of the mill, every day average idiot. Kinda like most of those TSA agents….
“Need a supavisor!” was probably the last thing he heard.

Isn’t that a stock not a brace? I believe that’s a SBR & he’ll have even more trouble.

Meh, that looked like a semi-auto pistol to me. But, what do I know? I’m not a news reporter.

Looks like the shockwave brace to me

I mean like how stupid can one be? How did he possibly think he would get thru TSA inspection with a firearm in his carry on? And a rather large pistol at that!
Dude has to have mental issues.

Joe Biden would state that is clearly an assault weapon. And he advises the US AG/DOJ.

I thought the pistol brace made them easier to conceal?

Looks like a buttstock is also pictured. I really hate to see law abiding gun owners do these sorts of things. It hurts all of us ultimately. That's if this is an ordinary gun owner and not someone with an agenda.
