Two
LA County Deputies, both of who were badly wounded in an ambush
shooting last year, have decided to sue the Nevada company that
manufacturers the 80% "ghost gun" frame , alleging that they
"negligently and unlawfully" sold the "gun" that was used in the attack
ten months ago.
Deonte Lee
Murray was arrested three days after the shooting. It is alleged he was
the shooter of the Glock-type weapon recovered after being jettisoned
from a car the cops were pursuing after the shooting.
The
recovered weapon was a Polymer80 kit, specifically a PF840c. This is a
unserialized Glock-like polymer frame. It comes with a drill jig and
instructions. With basic tools and the rest of the parts it is possible
to assembly a fully functional quasi-Glock. Selling the parts
necessary to do so and selling the un-serialized 80% frame is completely
legal under current law. Murray was a prior felon and could not
legally buy or possess firearms or ammunition.
The lawsuit against the Dayton, NV. manufacturer was filed with the assistance of Everytown Law, a well-known anti-gun group.
I
admit to mixed feelings about this. I do not approve of shooting cops
or evading federal firearms law. However, the product they sold was
legal to sell and legal to buy for all involved. To my mind this is
sort of like a GM dealer and GMAC being sued for selling a car to a
known drunk who then drove while drunk and injured or killed people.

I cut myself with a steak knife last week. It really hurt. So I'm gonna sue the heck outta Cuisinart for manufacturing them. I'm also going after Amazon, who sold those dangerous implements, and probably UPS which shipped them to my home. None of them even required a background check! Americans, it's time to take a stand! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
Gun blanks are everywhere. They are sold because they are cheap to purchase then assemble a working gun which is a lot cheaper than buying a new gun. There are entire companies that sell these blanks that don't even have to have a FFL.
Dave the sharp side of the knife goes toward the meat. Be careful.
