Yeah Vic, In MA we have a double lock rule. Whatever you have must be in a locked closet, chest, cabinet, within a locked room, with trigger locks, or something like that. Responsibility is key.

And you know this guy? how many kids does he have. Sh#t get over it. 85 killed in Norway, I think the gun laws are a little more intrusive there than the U.S.Silver Surfer said:

Any gun owner that inadvertently? Shows that many weapons to the Ebay world to display a parachute is either stupid or has a couple of screws loose Vic. Hopefully he doesn't have any kids because that kind of mentality usually runs in the family. Where I come from, that's irresponsible and violates the common sense of owning weapons.

I'm sure everything is legit, or at least 99.9% sure.
Just saying that it's not cool to display such a collection to the Ebay world, it's intentional, and that says something. Personally, I've shown some stuff here to the small group of people on this forum, but I would treat such a large collection like his as if all the wrong people were looking. Especially on an auction site that millions have access to and neighbors may have insight to. Sort of like treating EVERY weapon as if it's loaded even if you know it is not. Second guess when it comes to weapons? ABSOLUTELY ALWAYS!!!!!! Yes I know, very good point.
I think I spotted some M1 carbines and an M1 Garand. I think that some are just part of his collection.
The problem with showing it all like that is that you can become a target of theft.
Now, moving a tad off topic: Just because someone owns that many weapons/ammo doesn't automatically make him a "nutter". I know some dudes with that amount of ammo rolling around loose in their freakin' car.

Not really off topic, the post started off looking at the ammo and the "collection" It didn't really seem like it was about the parachute. The topic has pretty much just turned to the stupidity or arrogance of the guy. Last guy I knew that was so open about his collection is dead now, shot himself in front of his wife, and before hand my gut feeling told me he had a few screws loose.
Nuff said is right, there will always be a way for some nut to lose his mind, but it's only common sense to keep your assault weapons on the low down.

Yeah, it seems the go nowhere conversation has moved to another thread anyway. If ya can't find a good argument on the gun owners level here in this thread, go round in circles from a political point of view. I won't join in on the other thread because I don't watch the news and load up with answers to relay. I simply know my responsibility as a trained gun owner and guarantee that nobody will have unauthorized access to them.
And yeah, he's got a bunch of chutes.

Thank you. An acquaintance of mine mentioned that to me right after the Sandy Hook shooting.
I was also reminded of another incident. Prior to 9/11, the biggest loss of life in NYC, was at the Happy Land Fire in 1990.
The individual didn't use a gun. He used about a bucks worth of gas and set fire to the stairwell. 87 people died.

I love it! You guys will always try and justify gun-ownership. It's just ridiculous for an average citizen to be allowed to own guns in an urban environment.

Your King George III wasn't happy about that either,...............
And thus............... You now have one of the reasons we broke off from England and formed the United States.
Funny how it just keeps on going back to 1776, the US Constitution of 1787 and the 2nd Amendment!

I've seen more weapons in my grandfathers gun cabinets that were in his living room. I carry a Red Rider BB gun in my trunk but do not own any other tools of that nature. The seller certainly does not have my approval, but who am I to tell him what to do. I don't think it's very bright to display them on the net.
