I'm...shocked.

Why?

"Century Arms sells to individuals or other businesses with a federal
firearms license, and its website directs most retail traffic to a
network of dealers."

So they sold it legally.


Legally in Florida. So how did it get to France? International trafficing in
arms is a whole other layer of regulations and licenses on top of a FFL.

Unless Century Arms is a business along the same lines as Air America (CIA
front). So then the question is: What path did that weapon follow to get
from a legitimate(?) dealer in Florida to ISIS?

I say we investigate. And if anyone in this country is shipping arms to
ISIS, the courts give them the appropriate penalty (death, IIRC).



Documents shared by WikiLeaks in 2011 showed Century Arms had illegally
traded firearms with the help of “unauthorized brokers.”

The Center for Public Integrity reported that same year that WASR-10
rifles manufactured for Century Arms in Romania had become a favorite of
Mexican drug cartels.

John Rugg, a former police officer and longtime Century Arms employee,
testified before a U.S. Senate committee in 1987 that the company had
supplied rockets, grenades and other weapons to Nicaraguan rebels as
part of the Iran-Contra scandal.

The export of firearms is heavily regulated, and weapons experts
suggested the weapon may have been illegally transferred.


....and you are 'suggesting' the same.

BFD!
