- A federal jury found Joseph R. Isaac, 28, guilty of being a felon in possession of a Romarm/Cugir 7.62x39mm pistol in Kansas City, Kansas.
- Jurors acquitted him of a machine-gun charge and cleared several other allegations from the August 2023 indictment.

- Sentencing is set for June 30, 2026, with a potential maximum of up to 15 years in prison, as the defense prepares post-trial motions and an appeal.
