Cowardly Thieves.

Re: Cowardly Thieves.

You can be damn sure the law isn't going to be the only type of punishment if these guys are found. The topic creator in the link made that pretty clear.

Good on them. I can't stand thieves, much less cowardly arson's.

Re: Cowardly Thieves.

I read the thread on the other site, and it was mentioned the possibility of the ammo going to Mexico to the cartels. Something tells me that if the cartels were involved, the m2 and several other heavy machine guns would definitely not be left behind, nor would a large majority of other things that would likely have been in the building. That's a lot of ammo to get stolen, and .50cal ammo isn't cheap, nor does it go unnoticed when a large lot of it pops up for sale. A large majority of thieves, and criminals in general aren't known for being bright, they'll screw up.

Im from Australia so im not sure on the laws in the states, but down here civi's cant own any .50BMG type weapons because the US government has declared them weapons of warfare.

Do the same laws apply in the US?

Our country was founded on us being armed with weapons of warfare, although the erosion of that fundamental right started in the '80's...

Actually... it started in the 30's. 1934 to be exact. That was the beginning. They've been working hard at it ever since.

Re: Cowardly Thieves.

I'm sure insurance covered the loss. Issue really is that someone is definitely not using the ammo for going to the range to test their new 50. Bastards. That's going to kill a lot of people wherever it ends up.

Re: Cowardly Thieves.

The ammo is untraceable. But it takes a big truck, manpower and lots of planning to move 10,000rnds of 50BMG ammo let alone steal it.

Maybe I'm completely underestimating the market for 50bmg ammo. But that seems like an unsellable amount. It's hard to pawn or move ammo through normal channels. Weight/marketvalue would show it to be hardly worth while compare to more traditional and desirable alternatives.

Factor in any person willing to steal 10K in 50bmg ammo for the intended use against people would have snatched up the weapons. I mean, if you can get 10K rounds of 50bmg ammo to your buyer without suspicion, how much harder would it be to bring the other guns?

This doesn't add up.

Re: Cowardly Thieves.

You are trying to use rational thought to understand an irrational act.

I had the window smashed out of my car once, just so a thief could steal the stereo, which was only worth $75. Window smashed, yet I left the door unlocked. Does that make sense to you?

I'm sure plenty of others could tell similar stories of seemingly stupid behavior.
