Cache of the day

NYPD calls this a cache, I call this the normal amount to have on hand at all times.

If I had found it I’d call it a Gold Mine!!!

With an emphasis on MINE….

That’s where that boating accident happened

Looked like a bunch of trash at this point.
There may be parts to salvage, but every last one of those guns are in poor condition.
A couple look like they may be beyond repair.

I’d take all the trash like that I could find. Most of those could easily be cleaned up and used. I don’t know what the bores or internals look like obviously but I’d take them all.

Oh I wouldn't throw them out without a good inspection.
I just think the bores and internals are probably trash.
Obviously the AR receivers would be reusable if you could get them stripped down and rebuild them.

My fear would be they were used in heinous crimes…

Yeah, there's a reason they were on the bottom of a body of water...
One of the handguns mag well looks like it can't hold anything larger than a .22

Drop the batch in an ultrasonic cleaner with simple green or some rust begone stuff (forget what it's called) and most likely good parts. I watched a couple videos of firearms worse than what those looked like and the guy saved them. Some springs had to be changed out, but they shot good after.

Thats not a cache... this is a CACHE!

It’s wierd that they were put in plastic bags. Normally thugs just throw them in the river once they’re done with them or feel they may be too hot. These seem to be packaged for recovery or something. I dunno, I’d certainly try to rehab as much as possible.

I follow the NYPD on farcebook, they are always posting pictures of "illegal" guns, I'm constantly telling them that I'll take them off they hands, and even pay for shipping.....they never respond......
