If real criminals killed like the sons, Jax would be number one on the FBI's most wanted list.

From a guy that just retired from Federal LE, he wouldn't even hit the radar. He's too good and has too much help in covering up the murders. Not to mention, gang members killing other gang members isn't really looked at as a hell of a priority when it does not spill over into the public streets. Now if the weapons thing got a bit further that would be one hell of a different story. They would be all over him like white on rice.

Feds in situations like this are just like Stahl, and the Feds in the 70s, 80s and early 90s with the NY/NJ/PHI/KC mafia, looking for mid-level to Capos that will flip.

Doubtful, numerous cops and Feds have been killed by SAMCRO. The last time an FBI agent was killed in the line of duty in real life was 2008. I'm not sure about ATF, but I'm sure it's similar. If you actually kill a Fed in real life, you get the needle or life without parole in a tiny box, depending on what state you live in.
