$5,000 reward for Glock 22

This begs the question: If I find this particular pistol in a store, would it be legal to purchase it first, then contact the OSBI?

I'd assume that DPS would have the serial number flagged so if you try to call in the sale they snag it.

That would assume that somebody down at DPS did their due diligence in receiving and responding to the BOLO.

No law against it. Personally, I don't need $5000 bad enough to do that.

Firearm serial numbers are not part of the information provided to the FBI NICS. All they are told is handgun, long gun or other firearm....they do not ask manufacturer, caliber, serial # or if a handgun whether it is a postol or revolver.

States that do not use the FBI NICS may ask additional questions that the FBI doesn't.

I'd donate the $5k to the local victim's restitution fund, the important thing to me would be seeing that this individual never sees daylight again.

I'd buy 10 Glocks

Fortunately, they think they have the guy in custody now. From the news reports I've seen, he sounds like a pretty seriously deranged person (outside the fact that he's charged with the murders of 2 little girls.). They still don't have the gun, though, as of last week.

Of course not, but I think my local news (here in Oklahoma, about 150 miles from where the murders happened) is probably carrying a bit more detail than the rest of the country gets at 6pm.

How do they know what gun and especially what serial number? Was the gun stolen or bought and it's just missing?

The man who owned this gun was in custody for the murder of his girlfriend. During the course of the investigation of that crime the OSBI discovered that pistol mentioned above had been owned by him. How they ended up with the serial number had not been mentioned.

Before recently, it had been thought that this gun had been used by the man to commit the murder of two young girls in June 2008 on a rural road. The OSBI is looking for the gun to confirm that.

As of Friday, Kevin Sweat has confessed to the crime and is being charged.

Ive got a solution that would cost less than the cost of a G22. Or even $1..... Heck, just put a huge sign on him that says child killer and have him wear it around the jail 24/7. He wouldn't last long......

This is sad. My heart and prayers go out to the families involved.

Good. EKG Electrocardiogram. Easy to remember. And S&W 463 (yes no such gun designation but a way to remember 463!)

And made in the US of A!

Keep that in mind guys if you see a 'for sale' and a Glock 22 is being sold.
