Any gun owner will tell you: Losing or misplacing your firearm is a very bad thing. Your kids could find it or it could fall into the wrong hands. Either way, it’s imperative to keep track of your weapon.
Which makes it all the more incredible that almost 200 state and local police departments have lost the military-grade equipment they were provided under the Pentagon’s 1033 program.
According to Fusion, 183 police departments have been suspended from the program for missing weapons or failing to follow the rules. Among the missing items, M14 and M16 rifles, .45-caliber pistols, shotguns and at least two missing Humvee vehicles (that were later recovered).
In the last 25 years, $4.3 billion in surplus weapons and equipment has been transferred to more than 8,000 police departments across the country.
Most law enforcement agencies perform year-end inventories and when the weapons come up missing, that’s when the feds suspend them from participating.
How do you lose a gun? And how in the hell do you lose 2 Humvee’s? Unbelievable!!!
