    Texas confiscated firearms

    Wow! Look at the items in #15. Wished I had an FFL license, but will be curious as how much they go for. Hope it goes really high, being as I can't have them.

    When I was a kid growing up in coastal North Carolina, my dad used to take me to the police gun auction every year.

    Now I think that they destroy them.

    About once every year or two here in my county in Oklahoma, they have a sheriffs auction. Firearms, 4 wheelers, etc. Most of them were confiscated during the commission of a crime and the previous 'owner'. Said owner often is a convicted felon (or has just became a new one) and may no longer own a firearm. And in some cases, poachers firearms are confiscated as well. And, now and then some well intending citizen calls the sheriffs office and wants someone to come get a deceased relatives guns, just get rid of them.

    Of course they do a thorough background check and determine the firearms are not stolen and free to be sold. I've picked up a few through the years. Sadly, getting harder and harder to find a good deal. Lots of old single shot shotguns and 22's. Lower end handguns..etc.

    Lot 15 went for $411, not a lot really.
