Arsenal stolen from Woodlands gun dealer sought
Copyright 2005 Houston Chronicle

Montgomery County and federal authorities are looking for machine guns, silencers and semiautomatic pistols apparently stolen from a Woodlands firearms dealer last week, officials said.

"The most important thing is to get these firearms off the street," said Franceska Perot, public information officer for the Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms and Explosives.

Missing are five machine guns, 17 silencers and two semiautomatic pistols, valued at $20,000.

The dealer discovered the firearms missing on the morning of March 16. He went out to his Hummer parked in the driveway to go to a shooting range to fire the guns, Perot said.

The previous night, he had left them in a box in the back of the vehicle. Perot said the dealer said he locked the vehicle

but that there was no evidence of forced entry.

I am trying to get more information about this.

If the incident is as it is being reported, it doesn't seem like a very smart thing to have done.

If they want an arsenal, I know a few people that have collections that would qualify.
