Huge Gun Shop Theft Bust

[Westside]

must be using don's prices as their source..........

probably came from there too. He has been dinged by the ATF for poor inventory records a few times.

They said 500 guns and 30,000 rounds of ammo was valued at 2 million?

Lets make this math easy, he had 100K cash, so 1.9 million left. 30K rounds of ammo at $2 a pop (spendy), thats 1.84 million left. 1.84 million divided by 500 = $3,680 per gun.

Some expensive guns and ammo.

So they WERE from Don's!!

Why Purple? No need for sarcasm. Those are Don's prices.

I used to live in an apartment complex right around that area when my guns were stolen. I know slim chance, but maybe I'll be reunited...

Only if you properly registered each of your firearms according to State law.

When I first saw "500 Guns" I was thinking of the shop by that name that was on West 16th St. Is that place still there? The website its still up.

Ever since the theft, they've had to change the name to "Zero Guns".

Obviously this guy thought he would never be caught. I saw somewhere that he was a manager at a local shop. Anybody recognize him? Believe his name is Gary Williams and if you google the theft there was a mugshot of him that came up. I have never seen him as far as who I know with the shops that I know of.

I love to see how well they treat guns in a situation like this.....

Yeah, they (some of them) treat firearms with the same respect they (some of them) use to treat citizens: complete disdain.

 

[kludge]

The ones the cops want to take home are treated a little nicer.

IMPD destroys everything, IFAIK.

Anyone notice the AR on the left with the magazine inserted?


Sing it with me folks,

Mags out
Bolts back
Flags in
Safeties on
Rifle grounded
No one touching

Well, Gary Williams worked in my office. He also worked part-time at Pop's Guns as I have seen him there while using the indoor range. I would put those together and assume that the theft was from there.

Ehh?

You mean reported them stolen, along with a description and serial number?

I wasn't aware that registration of firearms was a law in the State of Indiana.

Jesus, they could at least keep them in nice shape and have a govt auction to help get some $$ to pay for the cooling centers. 2 million dollars would go a long way towards that.

These guns are the property of the shop they were stolen from and must be returned, by law. Of course It will take them years to balastic test them all and return them to their rightful owner thanks to that local ordanace or IMPD policy that was inacted by the New York Public saftey director hired by Uncle Greg!

According to the sherrif's web site they set his bond at 1 million dollars. I wonder if the shop will get in to any trouble over this as it went on for 4 years unnoticed.

ATF will Love this one

I wouldn't want to be in his shoes and find out.
