where at?

Article says New Orleans. Literally the second and third words…

So he didn’t have machine guns.
Could’ve been those auto sear credit cards, shoe strings, maybe even fingers.

Here's some more information on the case including a link to a redacted indictment. There's not much more about the machine guns.

New Orleans Man Charged by Federal Grand Jury for Alleged Possession of Approximately 100 Machine Gun Conversion Devices

From a NOLA article:

"She revealed more: Severin kept a cache of firearms at her Uptown apartment and made and sold “Glock switches,” she said. The thumb-sized widgets quickly turn handguns fully automatic, capable of rapid, often erratic fire with a single squeeze.

Agents with the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives soon joined New Orleans officers in a search of the apartment. They turned up five pistols; a privately made “ghost gun”; silencers; more than 100 “machine gun conversion” devices; and an “industrial milling machine covered in metal shavings,” court records show."

Authorities fear a rise in illegal devices that hike firepower

Hmm. Any pics of the gent? Wondering if his face is familiar.

Fast forward a few years and insert comments about braced pistols/sbr's.

This makes a lot more sense. I was thinking no way can a 25 year old in NOLA actually afford 100+ “machine guns”

Probably a .3 second google search and a quick copy paste submit

I was browsing Facebook marketplace one day and came across a guy that was selling Glock switches out of Slidell. He had pics of at least a dozen of them. He wanted anywhere from $250 to $500 for them. I wonder if it's the same guy.

Yeah, I hate that kind of misleading crap, it's just some stock photo pulled from the net (it's tagged at the bottom left) and used to make it look like something more happened than what really did.

No, that was the guy that arrested this guy

Even if its not Severin, like how stupid can one be? Advertising glock switches on FB? That's just like advertising for 5 to 10 in a fed pen. I searched 5 or 6 months back and they can be found on the internet for sale. Don't know if its a rip, but they are there supposedly for sale.

According to Chris Rock: "If your woman is mad at you, leave her home!"

Kind of what I was thinking. Smells like a trap. The ad has been up a while and it's still there.

he was also the one that shot at someone in a road rage incident and the victim followed him and had his info. He was not on anyone's radar till he did that.
