BATFU Contradicts Itself on Olofson

It quotes from the government's claims, "Olofson's gun would sometimes jam after multiple rounds were fired with a single trigger pull, but not before the magazine was completely empty."

"The government provides no record citation for this remarkable statement – that Olofson's gun never jammed before the magazine was emptied – because there is none," the brief says. "To the contrary, the prosecution's witness – Robert Kiernicki, the person to whom Olofson had loaned his AR-15 on July 13, 2007, testified that, on each of two or three occasions when Kiernicki placed the firearm in the third selector position, the AR-15 'shot three rounds or maybe four when I pulled the trigger and then it jammed.'
So BATFU officially says one thing...their witness says another...tell me again why an American who served his country is in a federal prison this Veteran's Day?

Good on GOA. I know some like to disparage them at every opportunity, but they're the ones who've stepped up to the plate here, aren't they? And they could use your help...
