that right there is another thought I had but I read this. how the median government is they call a 100,000 rounds of ammo a million. I mean 100,000 is the first stash of ammo but then is several people has that much sitting around but 10 times that much holy mother..

I dunno. I'd have that if I had the cash laying around for sure. Don't assume. I am totally sure I can't own enough AR15s.

There is obviously a lot more to the story. Either good or bad.


The AR’s didn’t stand out to me as much as the well worn hard military arms. Autos and the repetition of some of the rifles, none of which it seemed you could offer as “great shape”.

Looks more like a lot of what one would offer for sale to a rag tag band that didn’t know much better nor have the funds for better,
Just what jumps out at me visually, I could be wrong of course.

Like I said, “well armed” by ‘Campfire standards!😀
But as Osky said, who exactly is this fellow? Eleven machine guns?
We all love to burn up ammo, but if you have more than say 5 or 6 full autos, you probably have an agenda as well.
God only knows who or what has crossed our southern border. Lord knows it held open for a purpose.
Dope, under age kids used as sex slaves, espionage, military age males, what am I missing?
Weapons, ammunition, and explosives! Of course!
This is treason by the people who have a duty to stop it. But somehow I think the actual controllers are not American citizens!

I'd like to see a list. Notice the Lewis Gun way in the back? And some kind of old anti tank rifle.

Wonder how many get traced back to Fast and Furious? Probably a person who legally owned them and got a parking ticket or some trumped up bs charge or got red flagged. Could be any one of us one day. Your Thompson 50 cal muzzle loader will be paraded on the news and be described as a 50 cal tank rifle.

The guy was arrested, not convicted, and yet they spread his personal property out on the ground and take trophy pics with it. Disgusting IMO.....

I watched the video, showed more of the machine guns up close. I think collector. he wouldn't be able to sell/explain/instruct a customer on how to use/feed/maintain most of those.

just a gun nut who forgot to move out of California

Why did he have this much stuff? What’s his ethnicity? How about this: None of anybody’d damn business! Instead, tell us what criminal deeds he’s done. Otherwise, this is a nonstory. Lots of guys have collections that others might find surprising.

there's another thought about the machine gun issue. FRT are still controversially classified as machine guns..

even though a judge in Texas is kind of put a stop to some of this bullshit and we're progressing along the same legal lines as the pistol brace did so I'm thinking we're going to be clear on them after a bit but we will see

It would seem a guy stocking up on just 22 shells to stay stocked during the next shortage could easily get into 6 figures of rounds. I wonder what the limit is? In this inflationary environment I see cases of ammo as a financial investment. Two cases of 22 is 10,000 rounds.

their numbers are correct but how many 22 rimfires did you see in the video and picture?

I have not watched all of it so that's actually legitimate question

The writers of that story never did get around to saying why he was a "person not allowed to have firearms".

Not inconsequential.
