Car with a gun, you're doing it wrong

[mikeyp]

Well this is a first...a driver saw a small "black object" flying through the air while traveling on I-5. When the driver stopped for gas (about 18 miles later), they saw this stuck in their bumper. Troopers recovered the firearm and turned it over to Lakewood WA Police Department.

Apparently Springfield’s grip zone doesn’t work as advertised

speculation......biker carrying and oops?

Looks like no mag in the gun, so I doubt it fell from someone’s holster.

 

[Ezra]

finally... An actual "gun on the street".

I was thinking the mag could have dropped when it bounced. Seems a very strange occurrence either way...lol

Maybe biker was out of ammo, got pissed at the driver and hocked the gun at him?!

yup...that is certainly a possibility...

How many here would have kept the gun if they found it sticking out of their bumper? Rhetorical question...Please do not answer...

No gun left behind...

Someone getting rid of evidence.

What gun?

 

[snax]

A literal "drop gun"

 

[enbloc]

A little higher and the driver would have needed dental work...

 

[Uzi2]

Shit, all I get are bug guts on my bumper and grill.

The guy ought to play the lottery.

Add that to the list of ways to get a Glock in Mass?

Will he have to pay the deductible?

 

[E.Stoner]

Frisbee/Bumper-protector is the best use for any Springfield.

 

[mwalsh9152]

Man, all I pick up on the highway is bolts and screws

 

[Mr. Brownstone]

It’s like hitting a deer. You gotta get your bumper fixed, and it would be a shame to waste perfectly good meat.

 

[mtnbiker26]

Someone probably left it on the roof of their car and it took a while to blow off.

 

[MassachussettsMosinNagant]

If somebody was throwing away evidence, they sure as hell are a few nuggets short of a happy meal. Then again most criminals are. I hope the guy is licensed and can somehow buy it from police auction or something. Jesus wanted these folks to excercise their right to keep and bare lol.

dose a car have to be 21 to get a handgun ?

 

[amm5061]

What gun?

Doubt that Springfield could cover the cost of the new bumper, though.

At that point bumper would be an acceptable loss lol

 

[Glockster30]

Gives new meaning to open carry.

 

[Knob Creek]

Biggest holster award.

Boating... I mean highway accident
