> While federal agents were sweeping the three-bedroom house where Thompson lives they discovered 20 firearms — both assault-style rifles and handguns — as well as firearm accessories, including bumpstocks, scopes, grips and ammunition, in another bedroom, according to a separate complaint filed against the homeowner, 66-year-old Park Quan.
> Quan, who was convicted of being a felon in possession of explosives in 1983 and being a felon in possession of an unregistered machine gun in 1991, was arrested and charged Monday with being a felon in possession of a firearm, federal court records show.
> In the 1983 criminal case, Quan and two co-conspirators were linked to a failed contract killing using a truck bomb made of dynamite, according to court records and news reports. The bomb, which the would-be victim found attached to the underside of his pickup in Ocean Shores, Grays Harbor County, had malfunctioned, The Seattle Times reported at the time.

- VoiceOfWisdom 7y agoIf you are already a felon for owning a gun, why the hell would you own a bumpstock? Just go full giggle at that point.
- mieseratte 7y ago> Just go full giggle at that point. Well it's not as if you can just break into any old gun store or rural home and find a select-fire weapon.
- jdhn 7y agoJust put a lightning link into your AR style rifle, and voilà, you have a full auto gun.
- nostalgk 7y agoPretty sure a lightning link is more "elect-fire", not select-fire. Not to mention much more dangerous than the relatively well documented and simple (highly illegal without an SOT) procedure that can be easily found to do a proper conversion.
