"I don't think it's a machine gun"

The question remains is there an exemption to the firearms act for all police under all circumstances, or is it specific? Maybe he was quite legally allowed to do that stunt. If however their firearms exemption covers ALL police activity, whether or not he is a licensed shooter or not, he will be covered.

It can't be all.

Could sit here all day making up examples where it wouldn't be allowed.

e.g. letting folks handle your pistol at a party after work because their curious.

Found this screen grab that I took, can not locate the vid, its marked 'private' on youtube


Now does that qualify as possession or carriage Mr Assistant commissioner??

Some further questions... Is this rifle evidence? in which case this is clear contamination of evidence. If the firearm was evidence, but is no longer classified as evidence, then why has it not been destroyed or returned to its rightful owner. Unless it is being held in storage, but it sure doesn't look to be stored/secured.

Can evidence be taken down to the nearest radio station to be shown off?

There are so many things wrong with this whole situation and a very bad display of serious misjudgement and extreme irresponsibility by a person who should be clearly above this, and no matter how you look at it, this is wrong and punishment is deserved.

Correct,I think this is Peter Maher, so it appears both presenters were handling the very high powered 'Automatic' Savage rifle gun weapon....

There's audio of the "some kind of automatic" line and a picture of the 'automatic' bolt action savage......its no allegation, its fact, the guy is indeed a moron. The only allegation is that they are all morons

We have cops trying to pull showboating, anti-gun nonsense like this in the US. Much more often the media drastically misrepresents firearms, but big city police chiefs (politicians) do as well.

Michael Bloomburg wanted to put on one of these little shows when he was the Mayor of New York City. NYC has the largest police department in the US and plenty of crime. He told the police commissioner he wanted an AK-47 for a press conference, to show the media what his police were up against "every day, on the streets." There wasn't a single AK style rifle in any evidence room in all of the Five Boroughs of NYC. They had to borrow one from an out of state gun dealer to showoff what they "faced on the streets" everyday.

Bloomberg is a notorious antigun campaigner, or he pays others to campaign more so, he is THE enemy...he's near the top nicely surrounded by armed body guards...

Wasnt there an attorney general or congressman who pulled an assault weapon stunt, it may have been the 30 bullet clip magazine stunt..... may have been after the Sandyhook hoax....

This is why politicians making firearm related laws scares me. If its black with a pistol grip and a detachable magazine than it is instantly dangerous.

There was that bozo in America who only wanted to ban AR15s. One bloke was like you want to take my AR15 but you are happy to let me keep my m14(I think m1A is the civilian variant)? And the politician was like yes just your AR that's all I want off the streets.

What an idiot he was. I want your little 223 because its plastic but you can keep the bigger 308 because the wood makes it less dangerous.
