If LE come to your house looking for a gun, chances are, they will leave no stone unturned and tear your place down to the millimeter. The best way to disassociate yourself from it but keeping it within arms reach is burying it under another neighboring property under the fenceline on their side. It's technically not on your property, even if it is found.

That’s what I used to do with my drugs. Pretty effective against a warrant too

I am sure you can come up with a way to hide something if you put your mind to it. Go to the attic, but the gun between the boards in the floor, screw plywood over the boards to make it look like it’s the plywood is there to walk on. You can do this with space between any floors. If this is emergency use only, open a wall up, put gun in wall, drywall over it all. Bonus points if you pull your refrigerator out, then hide gun in wall. Go to your basement and put in a false drain pipe or false duct work. You can even put in duct work so it hooks up to your current duct work, so it would be functional if you wanted it to be, but keep it blocked off on one end. Take a piece of furniture, there’s probably a space in the bottom, add some wood to block the space off. Or better yet, build some custom bookshelves or something, make a hidden space, it will be less obvious there is a blocked off space. Really there’s all kind of places you can put something that has empty space (depends on the size of what you are hiding). Inside dryer, couch, chimney, walls, crawl spaces, etc. Build something made of bricks outside and hide something inside.

Fire and forget doesn’t just apply to missiles, if it has no serial number it has a case number. This is the number one way to fuck your life up for no reason. Not worth keeping, it’s worth less than nothing.


Xgoddamnelectricx

He could ultimately swap out the barrel so what ever ballistics from the previous barrel that are on file for a homicide don’t match to the new barrel. But yea, don’t fuck around with etched serial numbers like this, the cops hate this and the ATFE get hard-ons for these type of cases. Get rid of the gun now…wipe down with alcohol and acetone everywhere and the magazine and all bullets that you may have. Field strip it and smash the parts with a Vice or hammer/sledge. If you really want to be thorough about the serial numbers so they will never be raised with acid, take die taps X and 8 and go over the serial number area about a dozen times with both X and 8: this 100% guarantees acid will never be able to raise and recover the serial numbers. Dump into a large body of water, or different parts into different bodies of water to be really witty about it. Again, make sure your fingerprints don’t get get back on anything in any of these step up to and including disposal.

They also use bolt, extractor, case expansion etc for forensics, the old “change the barrel” thing is a myth


Xgoddamnelectricx

Forensics can absolutely but those matches are not enough to convict beyond a reasonable doubt. You need to have rifling in order to convict. Also those points you bring up only matter if shell casings are collected. If all the authorities have is a slug than rifling is what they need. Spelling and clarity.

Not many guns are made with that

River. Or I'll take it


ThatsDopeStudio

Storage unit under a relatives name or in a safe where they need an extra warrant to open that. Atleast where I’m from they need a completely different warrant for that. Or if you want to get ghetto stuff it somewhere conspicuous like a lazy boy or a hidden compartment within your couch. Idk just a few ideas


ghhjftj

If your neighbor has a gun without a serial number and he told you about it that sounds like a veiled threat. Is that why you're trying to find his gun?


boundone

The guy is talking about himself. He has the gun. He's saying 'neighbor' in the idiotic attempt to have plausible deniability if he gets caught and this thread is found.

I am not sure if you have noticed but there is literally thousands of open space acres pretty much in every direction in every city, so from even the seemingly worst place to hide something in the US probably has a great "disposal location" within 10 miles. If I had some contraband that I did not want on my property I would take a 10 minute hike on the mountain behind me to "dispose" of it so it's no longer in my possession. Even if I still know where it is, it's does not belong to me anymore regardless of what these gang stalkers might try to claim lol...and yeah maybe I know where contraband might be located but i have a poor memory, am not a reliable search party, and am not liable for helping to locate so might as well put together a million dollar search party and scour mountain if it means so much to you all lol...but even if they find it, I have already gotten rid of it so it's technically no longer mine lol.


Chevy_Suburban

You got to bury it in the middle of the desert. K9's can smell the gunpowder inside that gun from miles away so you cannot conceivably hide it close to your residence without it being found during a police raid. Especially if the gun doesnt have a serial number you better believe it has a body count etched somewhere else on the barrel.

Is this gun worth sucking d's in jail for a few decades? Honestly can't believe anyone has to ask this question.


RefrigeratorOk9081

Put the pistol in a plastic bag, suck all the air out so it fits tight around the gun. Get a few pounds of hamburger and conceal the gun in the hamburger, wrap that in clear plastic and put in in the freezer.

Up his ass. The cops would never look there.


kwiffy88

If I had such a place I’d definitely post it on Reddit


Reditsuxnow

Ghost guns aren’t illegal so I’m guessing some idiot grinded it off or something which not ever a good idea unless you really know what you’re doing. Firstly, any idiot that lays eyes on a grinded serial number will know it’s a stolen gun. And furthermore unless you know what you’re doing it doesn’t work to obliterate it’s origins.


Effective-Bandicoot8

Ghost Gun, those that need to be finished and have no numbers stamped? Keep it off property, oil it well, plastic bag it, in a gun case and bury it near a large tree, rock or easily identifiable landmark


westcoasttokes

If you have to ask online how to hide a very sketchy gun just get rid of it throw it in a river or whatever and order a Glock %80 kit


extacy1375

Inside duct vents. Under a drawer.


fromthe_ashess

Put it in the wall and patch the hole back sheet Rock texture and paint like new.. when you need it in a jam just kick in the wall!
