Karen Mallard, running for Congress (VA-02) decides to destroy the AR-15 her husband bought. She procedes to saw off over a foot of the barrel – thus committing a felony by creating a short barreled rifle without having the proper permit to do so.
Ooops!
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WVEC) — The Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) is investigating congressional candidate Karen Mallard after she posted a video on Facebook that shows her cutting apart an AR-15 rifle.

They won’t do shit ….. and she cut through the gas tube too …. making it non functioning and even dangerous.
Hey Zaphod! I think you are correct about “They won’t do shit…” There have been other cases where prominent Democrat politicians have violated gun laws on camera and nothing ever happened to them either.
As for the “non-functioning” part, are you sure? The rifle will definitely not fire in a semi-auto mode, but couldn’t you still fire it like a bolt action?
Probably …. without the gas action is suspect huge recoil …. MIGHT just blow that recoil buffer THROUGH your shoulder …. (used to happen) Make her test it 🙂
Yes, it would still do single-shot, but with a raggedy barrel-end, won’t be very accurate. Far as recoil, Same as equivalent barrel-length bolt-action .223; i.e. not much as rifles go.
I hereby propose a new name for such a weapon…dolt-action!
What a dumbass
