Fools posting pictures.

Stumbled on this gem. Doesn’t the GSG have a fake suppressor that makes up the 16” required?
Sorry I don’t know how to link.

Only the stupid ones get caught

Based on the headline alone, why was he arrested? The silencer?

The GSG has a faux suppressor that just screws on over the barrel. It does nothing other than look like a suppressor, could maybe call it a heat shield to keep you from touching a hot barrel?
Here is a pre lawsuit pic, HK went after them.

When you’re a gang banger being watched by the gang unit it’s best not to pose on social media might be a start.

I’ve seen other GSG’s that I swear look like they are wearing one but doing it on the open market so no NFA item.

So he was a prohibited person, then? All I could see was the headline.

He’ll be out in a few days to turn it all around.

Bobcat BW5's had faux suppressors as well, though I did see one on the classifieds lately that did not have the original "faux" suppressor on it anymore. It had a 1st gen KAC mp5 suppressor, along with the metadata in the pictures to lead anyone interested to his front door (insert FBI OPEN UP gif). It is now "sold".

He did have four rounds of 22 so obviously a true desperado
