A Cayuga County man was sentenced to prison Friday for having an unregistered and short-barreled AR-15-style rifle, federal prosecutors said.
Duane Hollenbeck, 54, of Moravia, was charged in September after investigators found numerous ghost guns and large-capacity magazines at one of his properties.
He was arrested along with Alec D. Hollenbeck, 19, of Lincklaen, Chenango County.
Investigators were led to Duane Hollenbeck’s camp in Pitcher, Chenango County, after a concerned gun retailer reported Alec Hollenbeck making large purchases of ammunition weekly for more than a month, prosecutors said in a criminal complaint in federal court.
An Instagram post showed Alec Hollenbeck holding two assault rifles, prosecutors said.
