For half an oz of weed

Link is a Youtube clip of a podcast with him and the Vinwiki guys. It's only 3:18 but he explains how he spent 2 weeks in club fed and had all of his guns from the FPS Russia show seized by the feds.

Apparently he had "butane honey oil" mailed to his PO Box.

quote:

According to the Franklin County Sheriff’s office and agents with the Appalachian Regional Drug Enforcement Office, Myers was arrested after he allegedly received a substance through the U.S. mail known as Butane honey oil.

Butane honey oil is a marijuana concentrate and is a highly potent concentrated THC (Tetra-hydro-cannabin-ol) that is most similar in appearance to honey or butter.

Only $400k of guns? I thought he would have way more than that.

I'm sure he wasn't buying and HODLing lots of those guns. Like the computer builder niche on YT sells their shite once they build it.

IIRC, it had been known for a while now that he was getting loaners for use on the show and was portraying it as his personal collection.

Let me say this. While the thread will rightly concentrate on “MJ being illegal is BS” and “government overreach”, it you have a shitload of automatic weapons and are a big online personality you probably shouldn’t order that shite to the same place that you store all the guns. He was fricking stupid and paid for it.

Okay because I know Hickok gets his loaned from Bud’s, but still $400k really isn’t a whole lot for a serious gun collector.

Gone.

He's also a felon now so he can never possess a gun again

I know quite a few collectors and none have near $400k in guns. Most are in the $80-$150 range. While there are many collections are that size and bigger, it's a small percent.

I randomly found the YT stream of his interview as soon as he got out of jail. It was like 4 hrs but really interesting.

Depends on the type of guns you have. Yeah if you have a couple bolt action rifles nowhere near 400k. But if you have a couple dozen pre-bans, some cans, some custom AR’s, etc it adds up.

I wonder how much money he made from Youtube. He was racking up tens of millions of views back in the Wild West.

Really should be some kinda PSA to let people know what’s illegal so they can avoid these issues /s
