2 weapons is not an “arsenal” and even it were, so what?
Obviously most felons shouldn’t be armed, but people are growing tired “journalists” parroting the national policy of demonizing gun owners. Better hope they subsidize your paper because a few more these and I’m cancelling. PS: The CAPTCHA are nothing but a huge annoyance and take several tries, consider another system.
FYI. I only see magazines in the photo. Ammunition can come on stripper clips which can be used to load magazines.
