An aviation collector buys a vintage A-1 Skyraider in France, takes off the four 20mm cannons while the plane is still in France, and the ATF STILL seizes it!
Here's an excert from the article:
"...Hendrickson said ICE agents told him after they seized the plane in May that he had failed to fill out a form required by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives when he imported the plane into the states from France.
Hendrickson said he was unaware he had to register the plane with ATF since he removed the aircraft's artillery while it was still in France..."

This is just wierd.
Remember: The ATF is not your friend.
(OK, so I mispelled forfieture....)
