TEXAS COUPLE BUYS SURPLUS MILITARY GUN CASE, FINDS A DOZEN M16S INSIDE
September 27, 2022 ·Jenna Biter
 
A Houston couple who thought they had bought 108 empty gun cases from a military surplus website was stunned to find that one of the cases delivered to them wasn’t empty. Instead, it held a dozen M16-style military rifles, complete with military tracking tags.

When the husband and wife, who asked Houston broadcaster ABC13 not to identify them, discovered the cache of military guns, they reported the shipment to federal authorities, who have been trying to figure out what happened.

“It’s just a case; everyone can buy it online,” the woman who purchased the cases with her husband told ABC13. She said they regularly purchased surplus goods in bulk, then split up the lots to resell online.
