Jashanpreet Singh, 27, of Lodi, California, has been sentenced to five years and four months in federal prison for unlawful dealing of firearms and possession of a machine gun.

According to US authorities, Singh was the founder of the “Punjabi Devils” Motorcycle Club, a Stockton-based outlaw motorcycle gang associated with the Hells Angels. Prosecutors said that on June 6, 2025, he attempted to sell several illegal weapons to an undercover officer, including assault weapons, a short-barreled rifle, machine gun conversion devices, and a revolver.

A subsequent search of his residence uncovered additional firearms, a machine gun, high-capacity magazines, a silencer, and explosive devices, including a grenade and a suspected claymore mine. Bomb squad officials later destroyed the explosive items at the scene.

Authorities said Singh later failed to appear in court on related state charges and allegedly attempted to flee to India. Federal agents arrested him at San Francisco International Airport before his scheduled departure.

The investigation involved multiple federal and local law enforcement agencies, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives
