New York Daily News, April 28, 2018
Cops raiding a Queens home Thursday found a small arsenal of guns and ammo.
Officers hauled off 16 rifles, a crossbow and 13,000 rounds of ammunition around 9:34 a.m. from the Queens Village house of Keith Harvey, 44, a contractor.
Bullets were packed into metal military-like ammo boxes or still in the original packaging.
Cops also found a ballistic vest, numerous high-capacity clips and a knuckle knife.
Among the weapons were three assault rifles — including a Fabrique Nationale model with a 50-round clip and two AK-47-style guns.
Harvey, who has no prior criminal record, was charged with multiple count of illegal weapons possession.
“Illegal firearms pose an extreme risk to the public, and in Queens County creating your own warehouse of lethal shotguns and rifles will not be tolerated,” Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said.
He was arraigned Friday and bail was set at $150,000. Harvey remains jailed at Vernon Bain Center until his next court date May 11.
Harvey’s friend and neighbor, Joe Russo, 50, said there was no reason for all the alarm.
“These allegations are insane,” he said. “He is a gun collector. His father was one too. He gave him the guns. It’s amazing what some people will come up with. He’s a hardworking man who has never been in trouble.”
Some of the weapons and ammo were found in Harvey’s gun safe in his dining room.
It was the third arrest in the past two weeks of a person with a huge cache of illegal weapons in their home.
On April 16, cops found 70 guns and 50,000 bullets in the Bayside home of a man named Ronald Drabman.
They found an AK-47 rifle, two Colt AR-15 rifles, five Bushmaster XM-15 rifles and an Uzi submachine gun in Drabman’s home.
Cops believe Drabman was a collector.
On April 15, Robert Czak, 32, of Long Island was arrested after cops found 19 guns in his house, 200 high-capacity magazines, gas masks, knives, night vision goggles and a silencer.
So who snitched?…..they didnt just randomly go to his house.
I’m going with the snitch theory also, lots of rat bastards these days. Can’t trust any of them.
Looks like a normal collection to me.

Damn straight.
These are people who understand that a fight is inevitable, therefor they are prepared and tptb are taking them out before hand.
What prompted the raid? Nothing in this article says why they made the raid.
This is complete bullshit
He’s been robbed , and the thieves will never pay for this crime against this mans rights
Don’t you love the words used ?
Arsenal
Ammo packed in military cans
Who are they really trying to scare with this crap?
This should be every dam man throughout this country , and the fact that This isn’t the problem
Not the fact that he’s prepared and his rights are being violated egregiously
This is sick .. this is how it starts people!
Right on! Truth spoken!
sucks that he might have to get a dam lawyer , but I hope he does go after them for this .. and than sue them all personally some how .. if any lawyer out there is worth a Fck , and is tired of this country turning to shit .. you should step up and help this man for a significantly reduced fee , or ….
Burn in Hell For Eternity
Reduced fee?
Bwahahah!!!!!!!!!!!
that was a good one, wasnt it?
Good looking collection.
Who snitched?
Greetings. Polartity reversed. Getting ready for “Shumer/Mandela/Darth Barakula hits the fan” is “bad”, trespass, theft, kidnapping is now “good”. God save the Republic.
yes, most of the guns in the “arsenal” are normal everyday guns. but……to have a long gun in nyc you need a permit. and the three “scary war carnage looking” guns are banned in nys. my guess is that this is the way they start rolling out gun confiscation in the places where the anti gunners have passed “scary gun” laws. in ny, it’s called the ny safe act. and many, many people have not turned in their guns. or made them safe act compliant.
so, instead of going door to door to pick up the “scary guns”. this is how they will start. see if there is any pushback. if not, to the next step.
frogs in boiling water.
Looks like they’re gonna steal his money, too. He encountered some snitches and “oath-keepers”, and they’re ALL equally deserving commie traitors and sympathizers. Scumbags.
I know he has every right to his collection, but NYC doesn’t tolerate this, and this guy is definitely looking at some prison time. When I lived in NYC, my guns were in Pennsylvania.
Who snitched? Could be anyone who saw the collection, because the propaganda machine has convinced the public that anyone with “too many guns” is a loose cannon waiting for an opportunity to mow down school kids.
Wonder how many of those stolen firearms are going to some how get “lost” with no paper trial or a paper trail that has them “officially” destroyed to keep the sheeple sate. Same goes for the ammo. A couple hundreds rounds here and there, who is going to know the difference?
2 things…
1. He should have had 16k rounds of ammo
2. Someone turned him in or the criminals in uniforms new about Dad and never had Daddy’s rifles in their turn in database
DTTNWO death to tyrants, that is what the gun is about…Australians are getting what they deserve…
Stand and fight or get the fk on your knees scum…!!!!!! Guess they are choosing the knees…!!!
Whoops, thought it was in queens Australia, shit this is our commie gov oh well same sentiments
Just look back at the last century to find many examples of what happens when
government-gone-bad meets gun-free-zone. Result is millions of people murdered by govt.
That is why we are guaranteed (not granted) the right to aquire, keep,
and bear Arms, and other property, to protect ourselves, family, and community.
Gun-infringement daftlings think they are helping the community, but just the opposite.
Guns save lives. Gun-free zones kill. God save the Republic.
“Cops raiding a Queens home Thursday found a small arsenal of guns and ammo.”
Who writes this cr@p???
First they say one thing, then the damn opposite…
“It was the third arrest in the past two weeks of a person with a huge cache of illegal weapons in their home.”
At WHAT POINT did it go from small to HUGE?????
idiots
Confiscation actually began quietly when you filled out “forms” to get “permission” to own/keep guns at your home. For your own safety, of course. It’s reasonable to assume that the bureaucracy has simply tabulated the “registrations” effectively enough to begin active confiscation. We are just now having them stolen. How many other thefts have taken place without making the papers ? Surely not all of these thefts are reported, just enough to keep the effing Libtards foaming at the mouth. Time isn’t problematic for the Deep State as long as the plan rolls forward. Of course all the popular “trigger words” like ‘ assault rifle ‘ & ‘ silencer ‘ were used for maximum propaganda effect. No mention whether either party had a FFL license that made the gun ownership legal, or had purchased the tax stamp for the “silencer,” making it legal. There are still some states { primarily western } that permit ‘private’ sales to occur without a friggin permission slip.
No offense intended, folks, but the East Coast has been subjected to the Limey control system longer than western states, & it shows. I personally am originally from Ohio, but now consider anything east of the Mississippi to be Libtard wasteland. Where I’m at you can get “privately traded” guns without records, the only way to go. Chin up, dudes, it’s about to hit the fan, one way or the other. Lock & load.
“Where I’m at you can get “privately traded” guns without records, the only way to go.”
Not the only way.
Ghost guns… pay cash or money order for all parts.
Untraceable.
Most of guns in fore ground are pellet guns, take close look
