The article:
"Federal agents seized at least 75 guns in a raid Thursday. John Walker, 50, of Alexandria, is accused of setting up an operation to illegally convert semiautomatic weapons into fully automatic weapons, according to the BATFE. Such weapons frequently fall into the hands of criminals, giving them far more firepower than the police, agents said.
An undercover ATF agent purchased an AK-47 in the parking lot of a popular family restaurant. It had been altered to fire dozens of bullets with a single press of the trigger,
That led to the search of Walker's home, where agents said they found a cache of rifles, Uzis, AK-47s, vintage machine guns and a military standard AR-15-equipped grenade launcher. Some of the weapons will be difficult to trace because serial numbers have been removed.
Agents believe Walker, described as a weapons collector, had been running his conversion operation for a while, according to court documents.
Authorities also believe Walker used the parking lot of a Safeway grocery store near his home to make illegal gun transactions, according to court documents."
