Title: Finally, a Real Cache
Post by: Ben on February 18, 2024, 01:11:51 PM
After all the "couple of guns and a box of ammo" arsenals and caches that the cops and MSM report on, FINALLY a real cache. I can respect this one:

https://www.wfla.com/news/national/cache-of-weapons-1-million-rounds-of-ammo-found-at-residence/

I do wonder how he went from "legal" to "prohibited". Also if he was reported by a neighbor or something. Also, can't cops freakin' turn training grenades over to look at the hole in the bottom?

Some real nice historic firearms there. They will all be headed for the crusher no doubt.

The sad thing is that in a free America there is nothing there that is not able to be obtained legally. This is the first article I have read where he may have been a *prohibited* person. Even if the grenades were live it is possible to obtain them with the proper stamps, etc. The first time I read an article about this he was subject to a search because of the "grenades" and the other stuff was found as a result of that search.

On another note, he lived in Richmond, CA, that alone is reason enough to have that type of collection. ;)

I only read until I saw “California”. It was very early in the article.

That works out to 4,032 rounds per firearm.

It's a good start.

Wow...

Lewis Gun
Ma Deuce
M1919A6
M1919
2 Japanese Type 96/99 LMGs
3 Boys Rifles
What looks to be an MG 15

Those alone are worth well over $100k if they are all functional.
