[Rob62]

This may be old news but its important to know that earlier this month over 100 rifles were stolen in the Atlanta area in one heist.

Here is the open source report.

Speculation about tbem being AK style VEPR's is only that , speculation. But if someone is selling them at great prices it would be worth checking into the history of the gun further.

It is old, but still amazing

 

[passdaboolits]

its not speculation, Vepr .308s.

 

[Rob62]

Interesting to hear about them being VEPR's - do you know who reported that ? Also how do you know they were (all ?) 308 ?

First report was that 120 rifles were taken. I don't know about you but I'd be hard pressed to walk away with 120 rifles slung on my shoulder. I might be able to manage 3 but even if you had 5 people and a car 4 would have to be walking home. Pickup truck? Maybe. Never made it to the rail car in the first place, even higher probability.

That article sounds like a justification for ATF and other feds to pursue their anti gun agenda by saying terrorists are involved. Come on, really? We have terrorists in Ga.? I believe we have crooks who found out that a rail car full of rifles was sitting in a yard under low security and wanted an easy score to make a buck.

 

[Rob62]

Yeah, in factory / shipping containers that is a lot to haul off.

 

[Butshot]

Also, I would be willing to bet tht some inside help/information was involved in this.

be wary of cheap sales and one sided trades coming up

Dam it!! I knew something was fishy about those 100.00 vespers. Guess over the boat they go...
