Similar charges were filed against a friend of the 2015 San Bernandino shooting, Enrique, I think his name was. He pleaded guilty to purchasing, storing, and ordering weapons he knew would be turned over to Syed Farook.

This is the press release:

California Man Charged with Conspiring to Provide Material Support to Terrorism and Being Straw Purchaser of Assault Rifles Ultimately Used in San Bernardino, California Attack — FBI

Here’s why the feds thinks San Bernardino terrorist’s friend is trying to game the system

Apparently this is still playing out in federal court as of 2018

The 20-year-old used a cellphone Thursday to film himself entering a Walmart store in Springfield, Mo., wearing body armor and carrying a loaded assault-style rifle.

He said he wanted to test whether his Second Amendment rights would be honored in a public area.

His wife told him it was a bad idea. His sister reminded him of what had happened in El Paso, Tex. less than a week earlier.

It’s crazy how they’ve twisted the second amendment to their liking:francis:

This is just sickening. These losers really want the country to be turned into the wild west.

Is there a reason they never identify the weapon?
It’s always “assault style”.
Are these weapons unrecognizable to the media or are they prohibited from saying?

In addition to the body armor and magazine, Kollie also purchased for Betts an "upper receiver of the AR-15 weapon," according to a criminal complaint. An upper receiver creates a pathway for the cartridge to move efficiently from the magazine to the weapon's barrel.

Although not a crime, Kollie was in his apartment when he witnessed and assisted Betts assemble the AR-15 used to kill nine people, according to a criminal complaint.

The incident occurred at a Walmart Supercenter near the Cielo Vista Mall on the east side of El Paso. The shooter walked into the store carrying what is believed to be a WASR-10 rifle,[13][14] a semi-automatic civilian version of the AK-47, and opened fire just before 10:40 a.m.[15]
