I agree about the suit....

I wonder what they mean by a "nonworking firearm." Was it only a display? Was it simply not loaded? Was it non-firing because the firing pin was removed? How about the 'high capacity' (ie., standard) magazine? Of course the Capitol Police cannot legally "tell (him he) can possess it." Just because you're a politician, or famous, or think you need one, does that make it legal? Certainly a typical citizen might carry/possess a firearm outside the law, but when outed, should be subject to the law.

Since there is a Master Lock Trigger Lock installed on the firearm I'd almost hazard a guess it was a functioning rifle. But - one never knows these days what kind of props are used and for what purpose.....

Since the dc AG declined to prosecute NBC anchor David Gregory who waved around a 30 round mag after sandy hook, one has to wonder at what point a law ceases to be enforceable...

By law, congress persons are entitled to possess and move firearms about their office buildings. This issue is manufactured to create negative media convage of ARs, pro-gun activists and politicians, etc, etc. Same old sewage from the same old sewers.
The AR is most certainly a firearm still, regardless if the bolt and carrier are removed, as the receiver is intact. Gowidy should know better than to make the claim that it is a "non-gun". BS from all sides to greater and lesser degrees.

Cam Edwards on his radio show interviewed Rep. Ken Buck the owner of the rifle today.

The interview should be up on the NRA News website Friday - http://www.nranews.com/cam/list/recent-segments
