500 guns seized in England

Are those Minie bullets??

And of course, the worst thing was, he "died of pancreatic cancer, meaning he could never face prosecution."


That's not justice. I suggest the English figure out how to bring people back from the dead so they can face prosecution for their gun crimes.

Two Lugers, UGH

Somebody didn't use "spellcheck" - or they don't KNOW how to spell "Calico" as they spelled it "Calcio" -TWICE.

Many of those firearms seemed to be more than a little "tarnished". Not exactly rusty, just grundgy.

Still sad though.

And, as others have already stated, the U.K. is PROBABLY already a lost cause with all these multiple repetitive invasions. As for the U.S. being able to come to their aid (again) - I seriously doubt it as we will be in the same disastrous conditions - just a few years behind them.

Experts from the National Ballistics Intelligence Service examined many of the weapons and could not find any link to known crimes

This was my favorite part.

Typical DailyMail drivel. Policed range bullets coined as ammo, what morons. Guy had a hoarding problem, he hoarded guns. So what. Oh yeah, he was in Britain, that's the only problem I see. He should have sold part of his stash to move to America where he'd be lovingly embraced by many, (and legal) instead of vilified.

I wish I could find it, but several years ago I read a story about a shopkeeper in England who found a (gasp), .22 cal short round in front his store and freaked out. You would think he just found an armed dirty bomb.

I believe that the bomb squad was called out to collect it

What, no US mystery SMG's? I'm disappointed.

Note that most of that stack of ammo is actually Minnie balls!

I'm pretty sure that he bought all of that stuff at Gun Shows in the US while on vacation.

Good thing we got those "off the street".

Ive been in England during one of their "Rabies Scares" . It's embarrassing to watch that society come unglued at the slightest provocation. I can see why my ancestors got out of there almost 400 years ago.

Of course they're different from us. As the song says, "The cowards never started and the weak died on the road."

And that's the conservative (And Conservative) newspaper.

I remember that. I was thinking that .22 short worked better than ExLax for the British.
