Anymore info on this Portland Police Stop?

[gryghin]

I find it interesting that they actually stopped a speeding car. I'm wondering what is the full story since we all know the DA has stated he would not prosecute traffic violation.

Portland Police Bureau on Instagram: "This morning about 2:15, officers stopped a speeder near SE 128/Powell. Driver was felony suspended, so officers arrested him and located this 7.62mm rifle with homemade suppressor and altered serial number. He f

Thanks for posting this I was really looking at it it's an iwi tavor short barrel rifle configuration in 300 blackout with a pop bottle suppressor in my job where I work I've seen people pull up with guns on their laps in their backseat etc etc

It's a HiPoint conversion

HTA MBS 95 Bullpup for the Hi Point 995 in 9mm

Close in appearance but definitely not the same gun pictured earlier. Trigger well and grip are completely different; geometry of the stock is also different, and the rail is different. Don't think it's a Tavor either though.

That is a Tavor 7 in 308 with some random crap taped to the front.

Certainly doesn't look a thing like my X95 Tavor.

Must be an old version then. Doesn't even resemble my IWI Tavor X95

I was unaware that Hi Point made a 7.62mm rifle lol

Does a plastic water bottle taped to the muzzle (if thats what it is) qualify as a 'suppressor' ?

 

[Luvmegrandkids]

Only if it's full of Mountain Dew…..

IF the perp had been caught.
LOL. The DA and the Defense may just use the excuse of......

"Fruits of the Poisonous Tree".

Yeah.....the perp had every RIGHT to believe that his car could NOT be stopped for speeding. Sarcasm.

Aloha, Mark

PS.....Of course.....I don't agree with the policy about speeding.

Yeah, Rrrrright....
PPB is not in the business of disagreeing with the DA or Politicians. And, this might cause embarrassment for them. So.....

Maybe the officer(s) could/should be brought up for disciplinary action by the PPB?

OMG.... "I told you not to chase or catch speeders."

The X95 and the Tavor 7 are completely different guns.

I didn't know you could make a silencer out of a 2 liter bottle.

I've done it. Works fine once on a .22LR

Have you tried any "solvent traps" or oil filters, you know not for silencer use but for trapping solvents and what not.

If so was there a noticeable difference in noise reduction when "filtering solvents"

Nope. I use a real suppressor these days.

My solvents get trapped by Brawny.

Speeding could certainly qualify "officers will stop drivers when safety is at risk."

Portland police officers will no longer stop drivers for low-level traffic violations

Portland officers will no longer be directed to stop drivers for low-level infractions like equipment failures or expired plates.

That's not happening up here. The revenue generators are stopping anyone 1/3mph over the speed limit. I got stopped on my bike for 37 in a 35 zone 6 weeks ago.

When I was learning to drive they always told me Montana had no speed limits through most of the state.

My buddy that lived they're said it was a "drive at a safe and reasonable speed" type of thing


Guess I got bad info.
