Bag of Ammo Found in Dorchester Trash Can

[IPSC_DRL]

Geeez, almost as dangerous as a Bag-O-Glass.











A very popular model in our Bag-O series.

That park? Bag O' Syringes, more likely.

Rep Points to Garandman for the new festive avatar. I really just wasn't feeling the Christmas spirit this season, but that brought holiday cheer.
Is that Mrs. Claus? No wonder he only leaves the house once a year.


ETA - Sorry to hijack the thread but Dayyum !

Well, you know they are going to print them and if the guy who tossed them didn't wipe each one down and is a permit holder he may get bagged..... like Alice's restaurant.

That was my first thought as well. Perhaps a Boston resident stocked up on the .38 wad cutters to practice for their mandatory .38 Revolver test at Moon Island. I bet these were taken in a home robbery, dubbed as useless and discarded in the trash. Stupid criminals.

Best regards.

Evidence of what?

Evidence that PPC is still popular in Dorchester?

 

[fencer]

My guess is that some nice old lady found her departed husbands ammo in a box somewhere in the house.

She inherently distrusts the popo so in the trash they went. Bet they find the gun three blocks away.

You know how some neighborhoods have "community guns"... maybe this was community ammo?

Yup!!!!!

if it was a bag of needles no big deal

 

[Fixxah]

My guess is someone didn't pay and the dropoff was called in.

Waste of perfectly good ammo. .357 Magnum is kind of scarce.

I don't know about scare but definitely expensive.

I found several 10rd units of 308win, still in the plastic holders, at the corner of 114/101 in Bedford, NH when riding my bicycle a few years back. I figure somebody put their ammo on the roof when they were loading up the car, and they slid off going around the corner.

I stuffed them in my jersey pockets and rode on. There's some joke about a high power 30-speed semi-automatic bicycle but I can't figure it out.

 

[Alex]

Did he find and .22LRs? They must be somewhere...

 

[Rob Boudrie]

Not at WalMart

Walmart even has 50BMG ... something Four Seasons doesn't even carry.

Lol. That "evidence" is probably already down range.

Sure does, and they often have hard to find calibers like 32, 380, 25, 300 whisper, 338 lapua, that you would normally only find in better stocked gun stores.

The 138 Raynham store is usually bursting at the seams at the ammo cabinet, but oddly, I find more 22 at the Rte 44 store. And lately it has been decent stuff like CCI or Federal Match. My 15-22 loves that stuff.

Probably that cop who said he was going to put a hole in the guys head for ebtering the rotary the wrong way

They will most assuredly find a new home

Street ammo? Seems legit.

No chance any could have been reloaded with a ++P++ charge.

... Not quite as silly as the time the closed an area when they found a replica of the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch (see the Book of Armaments for details on this device)

Be on the lookout.

"Officers received the ammunition and submitted the 226 live rounds into evidence"

Evidence of what?

evidence that someone in the department can count to 226.

OMG maura healey will be charging that poor guy now! civilians can't touch ammo....its against her law

 

[Drix]

Holy thread resurrection.

But seriously though, this guy should have waited for a buy back.

 

[Obie1]

that sucks. What a waste. i don't have a gun that can use that but i would buy one.

I know this a nearly year-old thread, but you need to take tomorrow off and get to a gun shop. Everyone must own a .357 revolver--it's a new law.

 

[MGnoob]

Since this thread has been resurrected... this is why i was so tempted to turn in ammo at the last gun buy back.

Dumping them in the trash, burying them in the woods, or slowly speading them over my least favorite range.. all lead to potential trouble.

Pulling them down and crushing them is alot of work and some dingbat would still pull them out of the trash and bring them to the police.

Burning them in a drum seems to be the only practical way of disposal other than the buy backs..
My local scrapyard wont accept them.

I didn't own one when this thread first went around, but I'm happy to report I have 2 now

Yeah, shooting them seems like a waste of time.

'My neighborhood was so tough, that instead of guessing how many jellybeans were in the jar and win a prize contest, we had to
guess how many bullets were in the bag'.

That's nothing, in my neighborhood all the corner stores had these and you got double if ya found a "winner"
