There he was seen to joke with officers even though a stash of weapons and bullets were found inside the house. He was even seen to handle one of the guns while in custody. The warrant for his arrest was issued following complaints from neighbors who were aware of his arsenal of weapons and even claimed to hear the guns being expelled from time-to-time.

And I wonder what she had them for!!!!!!

[bobbin]

She was the "nominee owner".

Which is the correct way to do it if you want to keep a firearm.

[gosompoi]

Three guns is an arsenal of weapons.

Nope, it's an air pistol!

If you watch the video you'll see the bloke handling the air pistol (long barrel to get enough leverage to tension the spring) and a box of them little lead pellets.

Prolly just as dangerous as the BB guns for sale on beach road.

Shotgun and rifle different story though...
