Report is out that the woman did indeed buy the weapons but it gave me a new question?

" included three AR-style semiautomatic rifles, including one with a device that doubles the rate of gunfire,"

What might that be? Faster trigger finger or what?

I'm guessing a binary trigger.

Per wikipedia:
A binary trigger (or pull and release trigger) is a device that allows a semi-automatic firearm to fire at an increased rate. The binary trigger works by firing one shot upon pulling the trigger and then firing a subsequent shot upon release of the trigger.

Since she bought the handguns and assualt rifles after August 2023, did she use an FFL or keep the records per the new MN transfer laws? Will MN also file charges? I look forward to Ellison filing those charges too.

I've read the opinions of some that match triggers should be outlawed because the light pull weight enables even greater rates of fire than of which these evil killing machines are normally capable....
