Whoopsiedoodle.
But don‘t worry, it’s on an island. How far could it have gone?

Some one lost it in a boating accident, and it also looks like there might be a job opening in that department soon.

Lost in a boating accident? I predict it will show up eventually.

Oy just beat me.

 

[TrashcanDan]

"Checked out"

Yea, thats it

M4. Nice. Many years ago I was asked by a detective at a PD to transfer a M16A2 out of the dep't and to him. It was in there on a Form5, so no problem. Form3 to me, Form4 to him. In return he gave me police "love letters" needed to bring in my post sample subguns and he had a Colt M16 for the $200 tax. One hand washes the other. Jack.

Maybe we'll see it under "New Aquisitions for November". Jack.

Maybe the POLICE DEPARTMENT should store their unissued weapons in a BONDED WAREHOUSE...?

I'm sure they would get a really GOOD DEAL...

So I actually just texted my mom about him after i posted. Turns out he escaped and ended up at the old owner. Who kept him. We were all coast guard families. So that good news

So, M4-type? or M4 Select-fire...?

Were you at Brant Point?

 

[Marty McFly]

Were you at Brant Point?

Yeah across from cottage hospital

 

[shootymacshootface]

Oops, maybe they should conduct background checks before checking out a weapon.

 

[dingbat]

Yeah across from cottage hospital

We were out a couple weeks each summer on Hulbert. Wonder if we ever ran into each other.

 

[sstom]

Did they look under the bed? That's where I usually find my stuff

Amateurs... when they get to the point that they need to spend half a mil to "upgrade" an evidence room because your department is corrupt like this one let us know...

Somebody said that about some snakes once.

I can remember, back when a lot of you were still pissing your pants,(have I said that before), a lot of surplus Colt M16s and Reisings were available to dealers and PDs. $500 for the Colts and $300 for the Reisings. They were transferrable and PD's got some to "play with" for the gunnies in the departments and got sold off thru distributers later.. Seldom, if ever carried as patrol guns, so if some went missing. no one really GAS. I had two Reisings with Texas PD markings. Come 1986, $500 became $5000 and up fast so missing ones became a more serious issue because of $$. Jack.

I know I failed 2nd grade math, but Form5 minus Form3 should equal Form2. He gave you 2 too many back.

(Jack - it's a joke. We don't need a big explanation. LOL)
