“ATF agents seized box after box of shoulder-fired rifles and hundreds of stocks, barrels and scopes in connection with an investigation into federal firearms violations at the facility.”
This just in: “ATF finds guns at gun manufacturer’s warehouse, film at 11.”
Oh and get the “shoulder-fired rifles” PSH. Since a rifle is a shoulder firearm discharging bullets through a rifled barrel at lest 16 inches in length (27CFR447.11), a shoulder-fired shoulder firearm must be something really bad and evil. Sad thing is the report shows such ignorance of firearms that they had to get the “shoulder-fired rifles” description from the ATF or local police.

Look at this PSH news report The took “AK-47s, assault weapons and high powered rifles”. Kind of runs right over the fraud and money laundering reason for the raid.

Are those “shoulder-fired” assault weapons any less violent then the “spray-fire from the hip” assault weapons we’ve heard so much about?
I wish they’d make up their mind.
I’m getting confused.

Well, you could technically call them “shoulder fired missiles” as the word “missile” also refers to anything hurled through the air.
