This is a link to a GunBroker auction where the seller is claiming the gun and rig to be the original property of a serial killer and rapist and the actual items for sale may have been used in the commision of the killer's crimes.
Maybe I'm being too sensitive or have a low outrage threshhold but I just don't think we need an auction on a major site that glorifies a sick individual. We have enough problems defending the 2nd without being seen as somehow fascinated by a serial killer's tools of his trade.
I wrote GB and told them of my disgust with this auction, I wish they would pull it.

- from auctionIn 1977 serial killer kenneth Bianchi began one of the most infamous murder sprees in the history of the United State. Dubbed By press as the hillside strangler, he terrified young women and girls in southern California for two years. He and his parner impersonated police useing fake badges to abduct hapless female victims eventually deriving their sick thrills from rapeing tortureing and killing them and dumping their lifeless bodies in the rolling hills above hollywood. This is a complete police setup security guard Bianchi obtained while volenteering as a reserve sherrifs deputy and may well have been used to complete the policeman ruse that was the method of so many of his crimes.
