| #8 Wonder if the serial numbers were etched off. At least that would help indicate whether a Gun Rights individual had a change of heart or the ditching of evidence from a commission of a crime. |

| #7 Groan...every time I hear this story they are some .05 caliber larger. |

| #6 So those "I lost it in a boating accident" excuses are legit? |

| #5 Cache for future sniper ops?, Hopefully the divers will see what else is down there if so, and perhaps forensics can help determine why the spot fit the needs of the logistics/support team prepping the AO. |

| #4 This article said they were shrink-wrapped, which implies a certain amount of planning and investment. I don’t have shrink wrap equipment, not even for my kitchen. |

| #3 At least one article I read said they were wrapped in plastic. If the magnet got them, it couldn't have been very many layers. |

| #2 I would think a Barrett lower would not work well after being submerged in water, mud and sand. There are much better ways to hide/store underground. |

| #1 Some bad actors storing assets for future usage perhaps? Keeping the large and heavy pieces well away from prying eyes. The canals don't have a strong current so these would pretty much stay where placed. The barrels would be much easier to keep hidden. |
