Actually he is being charged for manufacturing armor piercing ammunition without a license. Apparently they found 2 rounds of AP ammo with his finger prints and matched machine marks to the tools he had in his workshop. So far no charges directly involving the shooting.

How many years do you think he will get? I don't think that he will get by with just a fine.

He's not being charged in the shooting.

He's being charged for manufacturing ammunition for sale without a license, which is in fact illegal.

I read this in the New York Times this morning -

see: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/02/us/las-vegas-shooting-stephen-paddock.html?rref=collection%2Fsectioncollection%2Fus&action=click&contentCollection=us&region=rank&module=package&version=highlights&contentPlacement=1&pgtype=sectionfront

Of course, the reporter got the terminology wrong (confuses "bullets" with "ammunition and tracer with AP), but this got me thinking. If the accused reloaded ammo and sold it to Stephen Paddock, is this a crime? Reloading certainly isn't, but is the sale of reloaded ammo without a license? Is a sale limited by quantity? People are permitted to brew beer and distill small quantities of alcohol without a license, but to exceed this limit, you need a license.

What's the case here?

You can not manufacture ammunition for resale without a license legally.

You can not distill alcohol even for personal use legally.

You cannot reload ammo and give it away much less sell it.That is considered manufacturing without a license.

Hope he had a good commercial liability policy as well.

I hope he sold enough illegal ammunition to cover the lawsuit he is about to be connected with.

This will hand him one hell of a negative reputation but he can beat it easy with a good attorney. selling a pack of ammo isn't criminal the last time i checked.

I have to wonder how many people are arrested each year for manufacturing ammo without a license ?

Exactly as you cannot sell guns commercially without a license, you also cannot make ammunition for commercial sale without a license.

In the process of investigating the shooting, they discovered this alleged crime/criminal. What would you expect them to do, ignore it? No different from stopping a speeder and finding a pile of drugs.

The media is likely to have added the "armor piercing" tag on their own, also. In the same way they call every semi-auto a "machine gun" and anything black an "assault weapon" they call this stuff "armor piercing" simply because a normal .308 round will in fact penetrate normal body armor.


Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult.
