A lot of people had been keeping track of this guy Ajax22 on a few gun forums when he raised the question a few months back.

 

He purchased the video of the vote in question from the congress and finally posted the video on youtube and vimeo.

 

To recap: you know how people all talked about the 1986 Hughes Amendment machine gun ban?

 

Yeah, that thing, it was actually never passed. It failed a few times on voice and recorded vote BUT Charlie Rangel, the guy who owns 4/FOUR "low income" housing in NY, the same person who did not pay his tax, RAMMED it through and claimed it was "passed" at the end of the day.

 

Finally, the record was found, purchased, and posted online thanks to ajax22
