"Public Lands: FBI Reverses Course On Bundy's Gun" [1]

"The FBI yesterday approved anti-government activist Ammon Bundy for purchase of an AR-15 rifle, reversing its initial rejection days after the Idaho resident staged a social media campaign on his quest for a new firearm.

But Bundy revealed in a series of new videos posted to Facebook yesterday that he still has not procured the rifle from a local Idaho sporting goods store, following his refusal to sign a document related to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System review administered by the FBI.

'I still have not been able to purchase a weapon,' Bundy said in his latest video. 'I'm going to keep fighting this one way or another.'"
