Title: Looks like an ATF sting operation to me !
Post by: securpro on January 08, 2010, 06:13:52 PM
 :wo: I first saw this add about 2 months ago on swap giant and thought it seemed a little strange, take a look and see what you think....... I you were to ask me I'd say it was a SETUP for a real bad day! :rolleye:

since I originally saw this add I have noticed similar adds on craigslist also, I just wonder if people dont realize what they are trying to or if is ATF up to no good or maybe I'm just paranoid  :nono:

I dont about a sting, but just by the looks of the website itself I'd be scared to buy sell or swap so much as a thought on there. :laf:

It looks like 4th grade computer class assignment.

Whoa!   That ad I read is completely illegal.  "rock river lower with a 3 round burst trigger group"  for swap, trade, sell.   :nono:   This ad is all about selling an illegal machine gun.   And the last I looked the ATF frowns heavily on that.   :eyebrownod:

QuoteWhat's ATF


It's a convenience store chain here in Alabama they sell Alcohol.Tobacco and Firearms.   :wink:





On a serious side it is a federal agency here in the states Alcohol.Tobacco,Firearms. They enforce the laws pertaining to these areas.

:doh2: ATF (Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms) you know the group that was responsible for sting operations like WACO and Ruby Ridge.... The same group that killed Randy Weavers wife and son because he sawed off a shotgun barrel.

Yes we do and most of them should end with the initials "For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge" because that's about all they do to the hardworking american.  :wink:

BTW, do not touch that item. If it isn't a sting, they are at least watching it very closely.  :eyebrownod:

When I sold one of my AR's, I got a phone call from a guy wanting to know if it was full auto or if it could be made full auto. I said no and he persisted that if it was he would make it worth my while. I again told him it wasn't, the whole time I was getting a weird vibe from this guy. He started again on the auto thing and I just said, "Look man, it's not, so leave me alone your crazy dick", and hung up. I don't know if he was TBI, ATF, local, state, but whatever he was I didn't like it one bit.  :nono:

Ya know a 3-round burst trigger group will not fit into a rock river lower. At least not without some major dremmel and welder work. Somethings fishy in Hamilton Co. Ohio. :innocentwhistle:

 :confused: Either the seller doesn’t know what they have/or are talking about or….

Buy into it and soon there will be a loud knocking on your door... where you will find a bunch of gentlemen dressed in TAC gear...  then after you recover from their little house warming party the next thing you will hear: You have the right to an attorney…  if you can’t afford an attorney one will be appointed for you…  anything you say can and will be used against you...
