(Council Bluffs) An Adair man was sentenced to 24 months in federal prison for possession of a firearm not registered in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Act.
According to public court documents and evidence presented at sentencing, in December 2022, 43-year-old Randy Scott Shuey was found in possession of a silencer attached to a rifle, which also had a high-capacity magazine. In January 2023, law enforcement located a second silencer at Shuey’s residence. Shuey did not register the silencers with the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record as required by federal law.
After completing his term of imprisonment, Shuey will be required to serve a three-year term of supervised release. There is no parole in the federal system.
