It is Mass. His guns were too scary.

Thank God they're wearing masks.

Note: they did not say arsenal....I guess a dozen guns don't count as an arsenal.

Edit : now they say over 100 guns....still light for an arsenal

 

[quinnjalan]

Nice looking guns. I wonder will he ever get them back?

In MA, as few as 4 firearms count as an arsenal.

Looks like a bag with banded money also? Drug trafficking?

 

[Drix]

I'll say one thing, guy looked like a firearms connoisseur

Maybe he pulled out of his bank on the news from the north.

One day, we're all Defund the ATF, the next we're Gladys Kravitz because our neighbor keeps cash on hand.

Picture five. The one that looks like a pistol with the shoulder brace. That one is an issue in MA correct?

 

[Hailstorm]

They got a problem with a dozen guns? LOL It should only be news if they have to use a dolly cart to get the stuff out

 

[ridleyman]

Thank God they're wearing masks.

The guns possibly have the 'vid.

 

[CATI]

The masks on law enforcement is the future of oppression

Maybe?
If it has a fixed mag, or one of those straight pull bolt action systems it would be exempt.

Would you want to live in Holyoke without a bunch of firearms within arms reach ???

So I live in Holyoke, there is a good bit more to it than the news has reported on so far(shocker). The whole situation is a shame (from a firearms collector POV), A lot of really nice firearms will likely never be seen again. I only know a limited amount, but I do know there were well over 200 firearms, many of which had too many spots on the safety selector, a lot of "solvent catch cans", etc. This wasn't Joe shmo getting busted for having a non-pre ban "hi cap" or an adjustable stock. Picture a typical house from the show hoarders, except with regulated items strewn about all over with the garbage and clothing. I have no use for the NFA or any infringement of rights, but from what I saw, this guy was not smart on a whole different level.

I wonder if he was on the the trigger lists or ST lists and that brought the attention on him

 

[BigGreen2000]

It's a shame--at one point, Holyoke was one of the wealthiest cities in America!

Counterfeit hundos!

Hoarding tends to imply dementia.

Are you the jeep guy?

 

[Endangered]

I am a jeep guy, "the" jeep guy is pretty specific, Lol. I own Endangered Species 4wd (formerly Endangered Species Jeep) with my brother in law.

I'm 99% sure that's a Sig Rattler, so most likely not fixed mag or straight pull bolt action.

That's what I meant. I work in Holyoke and know of Endangered species jeep/4wd. Your name seemed to be too much of a coincidence.

 

[Mtn_Guy]

@Reptile … you ok buddy? Still have those Noveske lowers available, or ATF get those too?

I'm not demented LOL.

I'm not demented LOL.

I've got a lot of crap, too. The bona fide hoarders, though... it's a sickness. My grandmother was hoarding just before the episode that landed her in the nursing home with Alzheimer's. Neighbor across the street likewise - his son had to have the rented dumpster emptied like FIVE TIMES with the crap he cleaned out of that (rather small) house. Same deal with a friend of the family - his house got so stuffed with junk - old newspapers, ... - he literally couldn't move around anymore and took to living up at the firehouse (where he was a volunteer officer).
