Gun owners have to be extra careful these days to avoid not only incurring the wrath of overzealous law enforcement but playing into the hands of the anti-gun crowd as well.
Case in point is Guo Shou, a Queens man who was taken into police custody after authorities exercised a warrant to search his apartment and found a massive arsenal in it. What they found was enough weapons and ammo to “take on a small army”, per Queens District Attorney Richard Brown.
Among his inventory were 14 legally-obtained handguns, 2 licensed and loaded shotguns, 1 licensed rifle and around 45,000 rounds of ammo for any number of weapons. He was also found to be in possession of parts that could be assembled into an AR-10 or AR-15 assault rifle as well as several pieces of Kevlar body armor.
While all of Shou’s equipment was legally acquired, police claimed that he failed to store it properly, thus necessitating his arrest.

What was he even charged with?
NY Police: You are being arrested “in case you might commit a crime.”
unconstitutional.
This was in New York. Why should I give a flying$#%&!@*what happens in New York?
They were at his home to do an annual safe storage check, and the police noticed that he failed to secure his firearms in accordance with the law.
A law, I might add, he subjects himself to by living there.
Too bad, so sad.
If you don’t like it, don’t live in NY. The added benefit of not living in NY is that you reduce their representation in Congress and the electoral college.
This is similar to a Communist state. In KY he was on his way to a decent collection.
i thouht we had the rigyh to buy as much ammo as we could
“. . . the amount of gunpowder discovered was capable of igniting and causing significant damage to not only the defendant’s apartment but to neighboring apartments.” Did they check the neighbor’s houses for enough cooking oil (even more) capable of igniting and causing significant damage?
yup, considered a terrorist…
Mark Martinek now they know… ;p
So it only takes this and poor storage, “Among his inventory were 14 legally-obtained handguns, 2 licensed and loaded shotguns, 1 licensed rifle and around 45,000 rounds of ammo”
