FILE - In this Oct. 14, 2015, file photo, weapons are displayed on a table as prosecutors announce arrests in a gun-running scheme that used cheap bus services to smuggle weapons across state lines into New York City, during a news conference at the Brooklyn District Attorney's office in New York. New York resident Michael Bassier entered a guilty plea before a federal judge in Pittsburgh on Thursday, May 19, 2016, after prosecutors say the 31-year-old, a convicted felon who couldn't legally buy guns, paid straw purchasers to buy 44 guns in western Pennsylvania between December 2014 and August 2015 that were smuggled back to New York and sold on the street.
