Guardsman guilty of illegally transferring 'machine gun' after firearm
malfunctions

------------------------------------------------------------------------

A drill instructor in the National Guard has been convicted in a
Wisconsin federal court of illegally transferring a machine gun after a
rifle he loaned to a student malfunctioned, setting off three shots
before jamming. 

The verdict of guilty on one count in the case against David Olofson was
confirmed yesterday by the clerk's office in the U.S. District Court for
the Eastern District of Wisconsin. 

That means now that anyone whose weapon malfunctions is subject to
charges of having or handling a banned gun, according to an expert
witness who reports that the particular problem is a well-known
malfunction and was even the subject of a recall from the manufacturer.
