I think a smart deer picked it up. This was quite a while ago, haven't seen him since.

It has a bayonet attached - not just a lug. Can't see it close enough to see other details, but at the very least as a felon he isn't allowed to own it.

You a Baynet reporter?

And a felon is not allowed to own ANY firearm.
I wouldn't blame the news for that error as there is definately a charge of possessing a regulated firearm against Arnold. If the SKS has the standard box magazine and not a detachable one then that charge will probably be dropped as it wouldn't be a regulated firearm as defined.
It is nice to see Compton making the news though.

Can you see if it has a detachable magazine?
By the way, that wasn't Baynet writing, that's police press release stuff. If they say assault rifle, MSP was involved, and MSP maintains the list, why are you saying they're wrong?
Looks like in picture #8 here that it is a standard magazine, you might have to zoom in to see it better.

Go to the Tackle Box, you'll see a barrel of these SKS rifles for sale to anyone over the age of 18, as long as they pass a background check. They use a stripper clip into a fixed mag, just like Granddad’s Garand, and it's of the same age if not quality. Some folks like them as they are more accurate than a regulated AK, but to modify an SKS to accept a detachable box mag takes knowledge and skill. Things old George here seems to lack. My point is a constant lack of accuracy in media reporting- everything is an evil "assault rifle" in the eyes of the media. Unless it's a "High Powered Rifle", whatever that is. Personally I have no use for a "Low Powered Rifle".

I can't see it. When I zoom in close it gets lost in the pixels. Either way, I would hope that the cops know enough not to charge him with something if the facts don't fit. This wasn't a couple of traffic cops, they pulled in their top guys.
Is that a bayonet I see on it? Or am I seeing things there, too?

Yes, it's a perfectly useless bayonet. A lot of SKS's come with them attached.
On 200% zoom it looks like a bayonet and you can see the magazine holding box hinged open, at least it looks that way to me.
The magazine looks almost exactly like this video.

By "some kind of homicide charges" I was referring to any of the charges found in the Homicide Title of Maryland's Criminal Law Article (e.g. Attempt to commit murder in the second degree).
Based on what sockgirl posted, it may be the case that the SKS wasn't what was actually used - that some kind of pellet gun was used. If that's the case, it seems plausible to me that no homicide charges will be filed.

That's one hell of a pellet gun hole in the car door of picture #12...
He even made it onto the channel 9 six o'clock news.
