A baller on a budget...

Is that a Mac-10 with a .22 conversion and a fake suppressor as a barrel shroud?

Holy crap, is that a Street Sweeper?!

I haven't seen one of those pieces of shit in a long time.

It's one of those "looks cool on screen in a cheesy 1980s action movie but actually really sucks in real life" type of guns. (Same with the Desert Eagle that was also found.)

Someone in the Big Apple has been watching too many Seagal and Ahnold flicks.


I'll admit, while not exactly "staggering", this is definitely a step above the usual hysterical ban state "arsenal", consisting of a handful of mundane guns. This one's actually made up of a handful of semi-interesting, not-so-mundane guns. Especially if that Mac-10 is full auto.

"Arsenal"?? OK...whatever you say. Roll Eyes

I could make comparisons to "arsenal", but I lost everything in that boating incident in the middle of the Gulf...

“Staggering” is relative. I can drink half a bottle of Jim Beam and walk just fine. After 3 shots, my 4 year old face plants on the the first step...






What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???

That's because BATFE retroactively declared them "destructive devices" and most folks felt a $200 stamp was a waste of money.

Side note: Streetsweepers are the only firearm in Virginia that are illegal to possess. Nobody is exempted.

And that looks like a MAC-11, one I'd bet if FA. Look at the cartridge in the magazine.

Yeah, and they would all work so well. I'll wager there's not one single drop of lubricant on any of those firearms.

Staggering, huh? I have more firepower than that within 12 feet of me as I type this.

BTW, the correct term would be 'battery', not 'arsenal'. Deaf ears, I know. Gotta have the dramatic language. Roll Eyes

They'd freak if they saw mine. Even I, of modest means, have more guns than that, as well as ~200-500 rounds of ammunition in each of four cartridges. Sorry about that, but I'm working on it.

I have one of each. My DE is a .50AE. So I have 2 of the 5 guns shown in that "arsenal" in my collection (more than 70). That guy needs to try harder. (I've got 3 FA, also.) For anyone who's worried, all my NFA arms are papered and legal--the Feds already know about them.
