destroying that Enfield is a crimeWant to bet they asked for a budget increase?
Plus what did it cost to destroy them?
Notice the 5 swords in the upper left.
destroying that Enfield is a crimeOnce again I have to say the police are NOT your friends
they confiscate then demand a court order to reclaim.
BUT they never file a case in order to have a judge assigned.
Essentially death by red tape.
Oklahoma auctioned off such guns in the past. you should see the bidders go crazy bidding up some of the junk.
Many places sell seized guns back to dealers and use the money for police funding.
Our County cuts them up with blow torches, and I want to cry when I see a fine quality firearm being torched.
About forty years ago NYC dumped 70 years worth of seized firearms into the ocean. Had they dumped them on the open market they could have bankrupted every firearm maker in the USA.
Compared to the number destroyed, how many were actually taken in, some of which may now reside in the personal collections of certain police and city officials?
Two Berettas’ and a Blow dart !!!
I’m Livid.
I hope a gun buy back program comes to my town. The only two I have that didn’t sink to the bottom of a lake, is a POS Jennings and a 20g shotgun. Neither work and are worth fixing.
Horrible but there have been worse: during the Carter years, Rock Island Arsenal custodians discovered 100 new in- the-crate Winchester Model 12 Trench guns stored there.
Winchester offered to buy them back at a premium and several collectors offered $600 each but the administration ordered them cut apart at $25 each.
They were destroying S&W Victory Models and M-1 Garands too.
I see a couple of nice single action Colt’s and an Italian replica of a cap and ball 1858 Remington amongst all those guns.
