Box of M16 Weapons Shipped to Couple's Home

[Buncheong]

"'It’s almost surreal to believe something like that happen nowadays. It’s incredible,' said retired Houston police captain and former Marine Greg Fremin. 'It’s unbelievable to think weapons of that grade, military-grade weapons, would be shipped in containers [that] would be shipped across state lines and somebody have access to that. It’s pretty shocking.'"

Crazy! I once ordered a surplus ECWS jacket and it had a loaded 30 round mag in it. Lots of IDGAF in the surplus world.

They'll run a check on those serial numbers and track them to their last know disposition......then someone's ass will be in a crack. Methinks someone has cooked the books when they realized a crapload of M16's were missing on their watch.

Would be curious to see the results of the investigation.

Always some other guy

The bought 100 "empty" cases the one shown had 12 M16A2's in it they are not saying if they found any others. Years ago someone bought a truckload of wooden 2.75 rocket boxes and trucked them to Mexico where they found one came with rockets.

I would be so tempted. It would be as if the serpent slithered on round the tree to start whispering into my ear if I opened up on of those crates to discover such treasure.

I hope the folks who discovered all of this will be safe from any over zealous prosecution. Technically they were in receivership of prohibited items, and it takes just one numnut want to add to their stats da office to turn that around and make them prove it was not some conspiracy to obtain illicit goods. I know it is reaching, but I simply do not trust things nowadays.
