Unreal how he could get away with these thefts for so many years! It would be interesting to see the entire list of weapons and museums he stole them from."Gavin had been on a tear in the ’60s and ’70s, hitting nearly a dozen museums on the East Coast. He mostly stole antique firearms and stashed them in his hideout — a cluttered, non-descript barn in rural Pennsylvania"
His crime spree was so unknown that no one figured it out until 2018 when the man attempted to unload a rare, Revolutionary-era rifle to an antique dealer.
Can you imagine?It turned out to be one of the only surviving rifles crafted by master gunsmith John Christian Oerter.
