A Philadelphia man pleaded guilty to conspiracy to violate the Arms Export Control Act for attempting to smuggle more than $200,000 worth of firearms out of the U.S., the Department of Justice announced in an April 20 news release. Samet Doyduk agreed to ship firearms parts from the U.S. to Turkey and Georgia in violation of EPA, which prohibits the export of defense articles without first obtaining a license from the State Department. The firearms parts Doyduk attempted to ship include upper receivers, barrels and magazines for different types of Glock handguns in calibers of 9 mm, .40 caliber and .357 caliber.
