Large gun seizure in LA

[Ballistic Therapy]

Someone supposedly tipped off the police about illegal gun sales.
Over 1000 guns confiscated.
Not a bad collection if you ask me.

I have been publishing my opinion about how the Gun Black Market will flourish the moment a state, or nation, legislates self defense tool prohibition, for quite a while now.

Cali has been on the One World Government, world wide gun confiscation agenda cutting edge, for a very long time now.

Black Marketeers have been waiting for the right opportunity to flood the state with weapons,... but need the citizens to have had enough of State sponsored tyranny infringing on their Rights, before really opening up for business!

This bust will look like a weekend gun show, when the Black Marketeers really get serious!

Time to sit back, pop the popcorn, and a have couple of cold ones, imo, things could get very entertaining.

Yep, lots of "assault weapons" there, like Thompson Contender, Colt Python, case-hardened Schofield, British Webley, Ruger GP100, Colt SAA....

After 5 years in court, it will turn out the guy is a collector, not a dealer, all charges will be dropped, and he'll get his guns back -- after the cops went out of their way to dump them in a big pile and get them all nice and scratched up.

Morons.

It's California.
I doubt they will ever let these guns go back to the owner.
I am sure they will find some crime the owner committed.

How do.you know it was a illegal gun sales. I wouldn't believe anything that came out of California.

Ex-wife getting back at hubby for dumping her.

All firearm transactions whether private or with a dealer have to go through an FFL in Californication land. The article implies that he didn't sell through an FFL.

 

[RandyTF]

Actually, I just re read it and it says he is an FFL. I doubt he will end up with much of a punishment but he will end up having to spend a ton of money on attorneys and get his now damaged guns back.

That is a lot of weapons in anyone's concept of a collection. I think the question to be answered is, are they all from private purchases, or, is this a stole property / fence operation.

Hmmm,... do all possessors of FFLs register all purchases, in their books?

It would be interesting to see pictures of how this was all stored in the house before it was piled in the driveway.
That would say quite a bit about the intent of it all.

From what I saw on the news this morning, it looked like they were stock piled in a bedroom.

I'm just saying he had a lot of guns. It sounds like some how someone found out and may have turned him in on a red flag law because they don't believe anyone should have that many guns. Wrong state to own guns in.

Just think of how many convenience store holdups were prevented by taking those Contenders, Schofields and Pythons off the street.

 

[17-21-23]

Pythons do some damage

 

[smithers599]

Pythons do some damage

So do Schofields and Contenders. However, none of them is the kind of thing typically used by gangbangers.
I saw video of the rest of the collection on the news just now. The guy was eccentric, liked to buy guns compulsively. He was a gun guy the way some women are cat ladies. A hoarder.

However, I expect and predict we will find out that none of the guns was ever used in any crime, except for paperwork crimes when he bought an old Mauser from somebody without doing the California paperwork. No lives were saved; no crimes prevented. Just an example of the futility of California's stupid universal background checks/all transfers must be registered with the government laws.

He wasn't arming drug gangs. Who do they think he is, the BATF?

 

[smithers599]

They just showed on Fox 10 that he had tens, maybe hundreds, of thousands of rounds of ammo. The video showed what looked like a big stack of bricks of .17 rimfire -- favorite caliber of terrorists.

California pants-wetters.

Well there might be the problem. Maybe when they said they needed to register their weapons and when he was attaching his 9th supplementary sheet they might have flipped out by the number of weapons he owned in a gun hate state.

That's a good start
