Hell, they probably counted any extra grips as complete firearms.
True, but ya gots to admit, he DID have an arsenal...

I understand innocent until proven guilty, but why allow a convicted felon with those in his possession to bond out?
You do realize that the word 'arsenal' is used to scare, as if there was a conspiracy to mount an attack. I have heard the word 'arsenal' far too often in cases where there were few to hundreds.True, but ya gots to admit, he DID have an arsenal...

Arsenal used to be defined as a military arms storage for use in military action, much like "assault rifle". I don't have a big collection of guns, but I do have many and certainly am not going to call it an arsenal. Using military terms, or what was considered military terms, has been a tactic that media uses to heighten a concern to their audience.
I would call this seizure a large haul, yes.
As I said, used to be. Don't be surprised 'assault weapon' definition changes too.Evidently the definition has changed.
This is the first to pop up when googled.
"a collection of weapons and military equipment stored by a country, person, or group."
Take a scenario case where someone is arrested on something unrelated to firearms. They search his home and find a half dozen guns, and instead of listing a number they say arsenal instead, now they imply something more nefarious then what he was originally charged with.
I think it was the Waco incident where I heard the media use the term arsenal extensively. They at first made it sound as if the Davidians were stockpiling an arsenal and speculating as if they were plotting some kind of coup. At that time I kept asking "what constitutes an arsenal?" or "how many firearms do you need to have for an arsenal?" and at the time I couldn't find an answer other than what was defined back then in military terms.Nobody is disputing that the term is thrown around loosely, I just said that this is definitely an arsenal, lol...
And I’m guessing its days are numbered, unfortunately.
Despite the good the money it would bring could do.
Even with rough numbers on the low end, I’m guessing there’s at least $375K in firearms sitting there.
Property / Evidence Room officer:
What M-1D?
We never got no stinking M1D!
Some will come up missing from the evidence room..............
