But *why* would be be αssαssιnαtҽd?
There are numerous custom gunsmiths.
Turns out I've seen some of this guys videos before. Unfortunately he likes to use a lot of profanity. I posted a link to an example of why his youtube channel is so popular. Demonstrating a WWII era sub machine gun that fires 7.62x25 pistol ammunition.

Oh, I was already familiar with FPSRussia. Fortunately the couple vids I remember seeing didn't have profanity.
But back to my original question: there are others like this (there's even a TV show about that family of mega-gunsmiths)
Why would he need to be killed?
*My* opinion is he was dealing in something illegal, and the buyer decided they didn't want a witness to the purchase.
