It looks like a nice Smith & Wesson model 36. Worth about $400. Most people would be thrilled to find something worth $400 in a charity sale purchase.

The fact that the woman tries to somehow make the church liable for her hoplophobia is scary.

This warranted a much stronger BARF alert.

First, I think it is Indiana, not Illinois. The tri-state they speak of is IL, IN, and KY.

BUT...I watched the video and am now ill. Two really ugly (physically and spiritually) old women slapping gums and pointing fingers in mock righteous indignation demonizing a CHARITY. It is a soup kitchen raising money on contributed goods at a yard sale to feed the hungry .....but I am sure come Monday these two ugly toothless skanks will be trolling for lawyers.

The Smith J frame hand gun was at one point owned by a serious gunner. It has one of those aluminum frame/grip wedges...can’t remember the name.

SPECULATION: They planted the gun to leverage a settlement....they looked that swarmy and the emotion is a little over the top for Indiana....which is still a free gun loving state.

The charity will have to say, no...they didn’t search all the items for hidden flame throwers, hand grenades or German war criminals.....the gun will be off paper and untraceable and an undisclosed cash settlement will be had with the group.

OR some innocent gifter (probably a husband whose idiot wife was giving away his stuff) will be embarrassed for letting a loaded handgun loose amongst all these skanks’ children....gasp.

Fortunately, Indiana has little in the way of law that the gifter need be concerned about. The “keep guns from kids” statute has a “knowingly” clause that would save the gifter’s bacon on this one.

The media however, will howl for blood.

She says she believes the Christian Life Center was careless and did not check the bag before putting it up for sale.

And Rhonda was just as careless. She couldn't tell the difference in weight between an empty laptop case and one with a loaded revolver? The difference would be aalmost two pounds if the thing were loaded.

I suspect that she had an inkling there was something in the case when she bought it but kept her mouth shut. Then she got a nice surprise when she got home.

Sheesh...I guess it jumped out of the case and chased her around the yard trying to eat her. They’ll do that.

Wish I could find something like that.

The video is amazing.

"(sobbing).... oh God... (sobbing)..... I was so scared.... not only (sob) was it a "gun".... but (weep weep weep) it was fully loaded..... (breaks down in tears)......"

And the dramatization of when she found it..... picking it up with a steel rod in the guard, careful to keep her distance, as if some of the gun-ness might rub off on her.

The best I ever found at a yard sale was a signed Hugo Brehme hand colored photo of a Mexican Villa. I bought it for 3 dollars and sold it for 500 dollars. This was about 6 years ago.

An Evansville woman makes a shocking discovery after a yard sale purchase. She says all she wanted was a laptop case, but when she opened it she found a loaded handgun inside.

Uh, do you have the address for the sale?

A lot of people find a lot of great deals at yard sales, but when Rhonda Milligan went to the Evansville Christian Life Center sale she got more than she bargained for.

Two phrases stated as if in contrast, when they're in complete agreement! ;)

LOL. Its a new feature so that when you are trying to get service and get put on hold for the 100th time, you can shoot yourself.

Yeah, I just don’t see the problem. Nothing like that ever happens to me, and if it did, I’d try to find the owner.

I would buy a whole truck load of laptop cases like that.

Story seems a bit fishy though. I know immediately upon picking it up if my pistol is in my pack.

Geez....what a nitwit...she acted like she found smallpox or anthrax in the bag...

Her only reasonable concern would be that fact her kids have gotten to the bag first and found the loaded gun...

This story might have a completely different ending then...
