A convicted felon in Massachusetts is accused of possessing assault rifles along with other firearms and weapons.
Robert Kurtzer, 37, of Weymouth is charged with being a felon in possession of firearms and ammunition.
FBI agents say they've been investigating Kurtzer for the past two months, and on Tuesday, state police stopped Kurtzer's pick-up truck, where they found a knife, pepper-spray, ammunition for several guns, a pill bottle with two types of pills and $6,000 in cash.
Kurtzer also allegedly told troopers that he did not have a license to carry.
He was arrested, and law enforcement officers then searched his home on Memorial Drive in Weymouth after his girlfriend, whose name is on the lease, consented to a search.
There, police say they found two assault rifles, a bolt-action rifle, two handguns, numerous weapons parts for the assembly of assault rifles and handguns, a firearm silencer, six unfinished firearm silencers, numerous rounds of ammunition, milling machinery to manufacture handguns and rifles.
Authorities add they also found nearly 700 rounds of ammunition in a storage facility under Kurtzer's name in Weymouth.
