Title: Gun Auction
Post by: iahntr on June 10, 2010, 06:48:39 PM
Here's a "little" auction I'm gonna try and get to this weekend.
It's got a couple guns on it.  :biggrin:

Just curious if any of your States do this type of thing at all?

Are these confiscated guns?

yeah, I'm kinda surprised they don't do it with these too.
I have a feeling that's what they do in some states too.

I don't see anything wrong with selling confiscated items as long as they are serial numbered. I hope you find the deal of a lifetime on a Cooper or whatever you're looking for Scott!!

There are some dandies in that  list. :eyebrow:
Is this from one year of confiscating?  :huh:


You can tell from the list that some one had no clue what they were looking at.  :doh2:  :rolleye:

I think it's cool that they sell em and don't destroy em too Glen.
There's not too many high dollar guns on there, but a guy can get a good deal
on one though. There's also almost 50 bows on there too, I have a feeling I may
come home with one, or twelve  :biggrin: of those too. I think with that many, they'll go
pretty cheap.

I believe it is from one year of confiscating. It seems like a lot to me, but they have this
sale every year. It especially seems like a lot of bows, in years past there were usually
only like a dozen or so bows. I plan on visiting with an officer about this if I get the chance.
Yeah I noticed some of the typos too.  :laf:
