Detectives Recover Unserialized Handgun with Machine Gun Conversion Device in Lexington Park

LEXINGTON PARK, Md. – Detectives from the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigations Division executed a search and seizure warrant on Tuesday, October 8, 2024, at a residence in the 21000 block of Little Girls Way, resulting in the recovery of an unserialized handgun, magazines, and ammunition.

Following an ongoing investigation, detectives secured the warrant and served it at the Lexington Park residence, where they located a polymer 80 handgun equipped with a machine gun conversion device, which enables a semiautomatic weapon to function as a fully automatic firearm.

Devin Allen Miles, 21, of Lexington Park, was arrested and charged with possession of a rapid-fire trigger activator and possession of a machine gun for an aggressive purpose.

Miles was transported to the St. Mary’s County Detention and Rehabilitation Center in Leonardtown to await a bond hearing.
