Stolen Garands....Elma

6 Garands stolen in Elma last week or so. They were VFW ceremonial rifles (barrels plugged). The caretaker passed and his family discovered the theft after his death.

Well, if the thief manages to chamber a live round, we'll probably find out who he was.

We've heard the rifles were recovered at a tacoma gun store. No other info yet.

Cool.

Hopefully they had cameras on who brought them in.

Nice ending, but it’s a bit sketchy that the gun shop owne4 was able to “track down” the 7th rifle…combined with no arrests…
