Local gun dealer defends Century Arms after terrorist’s weapon linked to Delray Beach company

The gun used in the Paris terror attacks and traced back to Century International Arms in Delray Beach was an assault pistol, which is a derivative of the AK-47 assault rifle, and, in its original form, was legal, according to gun dealer Joe Rice, of the Palm Beach Shooting Range and Gun Shop.

You got to understand, Century Arms is a big company. They deal with a lot of products. They sell all over the country. So, however that gun ended up in Paris, your guess is as good as mine,” said Rice.

The guns used by Islamic militants in the Paris attacks were automatic, so Rice said that means someone first snuck the gun into Europe and somewhere along the way converted it from semi-automatic to automatic, which is illegal.

“Converting a gun, 10 years in prison. It’s a federal fine, $250,000 dollar fine. Oh, yeah, it is a major serious weapons violation,” said Rice. For the full article click here
