Gun store owner may have improperly disposed of hundreds of guns in a dumpster.

This is weird. He claims they were defective but that seems really weird to me. I wonder if he just lost it.

Federal agents discovered a dumpster filled with almost 250 working rifles and shotguns in Oklahoma, and allege that a man was given 2 free shotguns to hang on his wall

A gun store owner may have improperly disposed of the weapons and his staff may have given a man two shotguns for free with no background check.

I do so enjoy a good dumpster dive. Why does this stuff never happen near me!!??

I saw this earlier, my first was why couldn't I find a haul like this. Then I thought why a gun shop would do this? It doesn't make sense, if there defective send them back, if they are so cheaply made and the importer won't take em back then strip them for parts and destroy the receiver. Anything but toss in a dumpster for people to find and the anti's to use as ammo!

I had the same thoughts and I’m wondering if he was just losing it.

Several months later, on same day the agency was contacted by the sanitation worker, ATF agents visited the dumpster and found functional guns, "despite being partially cut," according to the warrant.

The agents then encountered two men near the store who told them that they had seen the dumpster loaded with guns on separate occasions, months before the January incident.

Mike Keenum, one of the men near the store, told agents that a teen employee had been cutting the weapons outside of the store multiple days a week, when he approached the employee and said he was interested in owning the guns.

"Mr. Keenum told the man that he did not intend to shoot the guns, but rather wanted to hang the firearms on his wall," an ATF agent said in the warrant. "The male employee permitted Mr. Keenum to take two uncut firearms and gave Mr. Keenum two magazines, one for each firearm."



define "functional" ..

the gun functions .. but is it fuckin safe to shoot ?
