Only if that’s where she stopped. (If you really want to be a pedant about it, it was an illegal weapon between cutting through the barrel and destroying the other parts of the gun.)

That’s how the ATF views it. She created an illegal weapon, it doesn’t matter how long it existed in that form. The ATF is very pedantic about this kind of thing.

That’s why I called it out as a pedant fail. They don’t know what she did with it. Heck, there might have been a cop off camera to take the remains of the weapon.

It doesn’t matter what she did with it afterwards. She filmed herself committing a felony and posted it on Facebook for the entire world to see. Not smart. That she wants people to send her to Congress and write legislation just adds a layer of poetic irony to the situation.

I mean, I sympathize with where she’s coming from, but that was extremely not smart. It’s a textbook example of why it would serve liberals well not to be ignorant about guns. This isn’t merely mixing up a clip with a magazine, it’s flirting with a ten year prison sentence.
