    When we moved recently, I sold much of my collection to fund the home improvement projects we undertook. I kept a few rimfire items for family fun and plinking, and an heirloom S/S 20ga. We love our dream home we now have, but I miss my toys.

    I had two ATF agents and four sheriff's deputies show up at my farm and confiscate all mine because they claimed I purchased ten machine guns at a gun show.

    I mean i know im dumb for not keeping some at home but goodness i obviously tried to get them but they sank to the bottom

    Many of us did the same mistake. :noway:
    You did what seamed to be the best thing to do at that time.What if you left some guns at home and the house burnt down while you were on the lake? :dunno:
    At least you're lucky they are in a lake, I lost mines at sea during the "INGO titanic cruise". :facepalm:

    Did you also had all your ammo with the guns? :n00b:

    I was worried about mine so I put them in the back of a truck and drove them to Kentucky for safekeeping but I hit a pothole on the bridge and they all fell into the Ohio River. :facepalm: :crying:

    First was a tragic boating accident. Then the wife forbid my boating so I took up ice fishing. Who knew a safe would sink that quick. I guess the ice was thin.

    I was out four wheeling in the Yamaha Rhino yesterday and as I drove across a frozen lake a Giant catfish broke through the ice and caused me to roll over and wouldnt you know the entirety of my collection fell through the ice.

    Well, the Canadian Cartel came by my place and told me to give them all my guns. Stupid Canadian, didn't even ask for the ammo.
