Looks like a STG-44. Anybody?

It appears to be an STG 44. I do not believe there is any provision in the law allowing the woman to sell it to anyone. A lot of people have paid fines or ended up in jail because of this stupid law. Maybe some people will understand it a little more if there ever is a followup to this story, which I forecast there will not be, unless it is a constitutionalist that does it on the interwebs.

There is not even a provision in the law allowing the woman to turn it in.

It is indeed an STG-44! The video attached to the article shows it in closeup and the officer describing it is knowledgable about it's origins and value.

"StG 44 (Sturmgewehr 44, literally "storm (or assault) rifle (model of 1944) was an assault rifle developed in Nazi Germany in 1944 and considered to be the "Father" of all modern assult rifles (selective semi/full autiomatic fire and using a cartridge smaller than a full sized battle rifle)"

You can buy semi auto only replicas, chambered for .22LR priced around $600.00 Which is a lot of money for a .22 plinker but it would sure shake them up at the range!

Regards,
GtG
