JC - You have got to be kidding. For the most part, Jerry-baiting seems to be a sport for the RMR crowd. About the only thing some of these guys like better is coming up with new names for themselves.
You are right - I have never purchased a JI/USR motor. I am conservative (chicken?) about these sort of things. So far I have seen way too many posts that would advise me not to purchase motors from Mr. Irvine. His counter posts are always couched in assorted cites from CFR. Unless he posts a image of his certificate showing his admission to the Bar, I will take those posts with a grain of salt. I worked extensively as an engineer with 21USC and
15USC and am well enough aware that you can read anything you like into the CFR. What matters is how the enforcement bodies interpret it and the depths of your pockets to pay for litigation. Life ain't fair...took a while, but I got used to it. We don't have to like it, but it is the way of the world.
You missed the point of my post though,
Joel C, probably jokingly, made a plea for people to not poke at the troll. I, in like manner, said that has an icicle's chance in hell of happening.
My points
1) There are a lot of people here who seem to enjoy stirring the pot by tormenting JI.
2) Most of them hide behind something other than their real name. I personally feel if you don't have the faith in your argument to stand behind it with your real name, then your opinion loses weight.
You're right... I'm unaware of any "enforcement powers" that give the BATF, or any agency, the right to just up and call someone "guilty of a felony" without the law on their side and a judge and jury signing off on the whole business.
