Briggsy Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 That is a homemade gun, I believe. Suspect has a "low IQ looking" face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LennyW Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 That is a homemade gun, I believe. Suspect has a "low IQ looking" face. A single shotgun cartridge pistol, very dangerous bit of kit for both the target and the shooter! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The irony is as if it makes any difference where he was going or to whom he was going to give it to. Like drug dealers claiming to deal because they do not have a job, as if they would be let go or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pattaya46 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 USD 50 to buy a gun Maybe a bit cheap, but when you read police declarations that in the South "rebels" can buy AK-47 for $300, no reason that a second-hand handgun in not so good state costs more than $100.
