Among the items seized were two SureFire firearm suppressors, a barrel for a Daniel Defense internally suppressed rifle, eight upper assemblies for Geissele Automatics brand rifles, two suppressor alignment rods, two suspected rocket launcher tubes, and approximately 6,000 rounds of unopened ammunition.

(bullets? No casings or powder?)

“We won’t allow dangerous weaponry that is provided for military use to be stolen without consequences."

Except for the taliban in afghanistan.

With the biden economy roaring along, if you gotta make a few extra bucks to buy a dozen eggs..............

[John Milner]

Whatever. Everybody steals from work.

[Alas Babylon!]

Air Force Master Sergeant, retired and then became an Army civilian worker...

Aim high, then be all that you be!

[TheDon]

It does seem a frivolous crime compared to what the government has done and is doing. Perhaps they’re punishing him because he didn’t give them a piece of the action.

[BipolarBob]

The Big Guy didn’t get 10% of the action.

[dforest]

Okay, that makes sense.

[Eagles6]

That wasn't stolen.

It was a gift.

[jjotto]

Troy Lynn Misiak, pled guilty.

A problem is much military equipment supplies is wasted to make the sure the years allotment of money is spent.

[oldplayer]

Boy! Classified materials? Kept in his garage? He’s really going to get in trouble now!

“...and approximately 6,000 rounds of unopened ammunition.”

In Texas you’d also get locked away...for not having sufficient ammo to defend yourself against Biden’s buddies.

[Nifster]

No they don’t

[vetvetdoug]

No name, no picture...I wonder why?

[vetvetdoug]

Thank you. I researched and found his name and picture also. Several resources didn’t mention his name.

[John Milner]

It was (I thought) obvious sarcasm.

Sorry I didn’t tag it as such.

This is how I got selected to work in the armory when I was in Korea 1969. Two armorers from our squadron were arrested by OSI for sending home automatic sears for M-16’s. Other guys sent home all kinds of illegal stuff in their whole baggage. On the way home we stopped in Elmandorf AFB, Anchorage, AK and OSI arrested two more for smuggling drugs.It was quite common back then.
