We often hear politicians talk about the north hollywood shootout where the two gunmen with AK-47s held off the LA police until the police were able to acquire some ARs and take them down.
But we never hear where those gunmen got the rifles?
Were they purchased off the shelf, and converted to FA?? Were they stolen title II firearms? Or were they illegally imported into the country?
Anyone have any links to reliable sources?
Also, I heard somewhere that they had the rifles confiscated prior to the shootout taking place, but because the search was illegal, the arrest was thrown out, and the rifles were turned back over to them.
Any truth to that?
I.G.B.
Edited because I can't tell north from west.
