Gun owners have to be extra careful these days to avoid not only incurring the wrath of overzealous law enforcement but playing into the hands of the anti-gun crowd as well.
Case in point is Guo Shou, a Queens man who was taken into police custody after authorities exercised a warrant to search his apartment and found a massive arsenal in it. What they found was enough weapons and ammo to “take on a small army”, per Queens District Attorney Richard Brown.
Among his inventory were 14 legally-obtained handguns, 2 licensed and loaded shotguns, 1 licensed rifle and around 45,000 rounds of ammo for any number of weapons. He was also found to be in possession of parts that could be assembled into an AR-10 or AR-15 assault rifle as well as several pieces of Kevlar body armor.
While all of Shou’s equipment was legally acquired, police claimed that he failed to store it properly, thus necessitating his arrest.

It’s gun NUTS like you and this guy who give normal gun owners like me a bad name.
Was there a constitutional limit put on the number you can own? “Shall not be infringed” is how many?
Robert Arceneaux, a danger period! Powder was black powder. Not something you just want laying around. Unless of course, you are into pyrotechnics, and that “E” word.
He wasn’t arrested for having too much ammo, it was that he had too much gunpowder and it was improperly stored. Normally one can maintain up to 50 lbs of gun powder without getting into storage issues, it’s a fire regulation. He had over 200lbs., that’s a problem. The rest of it is b******t but it’s New York City, so it’s to be expected, the b******t that is.

The next block over must by the NYC soda pop$#%&!@*
If these cops were to set foot west of the Mississippi, they’d die of cardiac arrest.
The article says they were operating on a warrant, but doesn’t mention what the warrant was for. It’s a relatively common tactic for law enforcement to act on lesser offences in order to open the door for further investigations, or to keep an offender off the streets while a more severe charge is being made.
I’m not saying that’s what happened, but I am saying that they had a warrant in the first place, so maybe we shouldn’t give this guy the benefit of the doubt, and start ranting about police taking away guns in NYC
It wasn’t a warrant they had, it was an inspection that was made under requirements of his pistol permit (all of which is un-constitutional infringement of his right to keep and bear arms).
They saw some gunpowder and bullets (which simply means he had reloading components) and used that as an excuse to raid his apartment.
Fact is, he’s violated no law, certainly no reasonable one. He should be exonerated and suit the city in federal court for violation of civil rights under the 2nd, 4th amendments.
that is total b******t where is it the police rite or the media or anyone else to say he has to much steppin on law abidding peopleammo or to many guns and if everything he has is legal then wheres the problem just another case of the government
