Officers with the 81st Precinct in the Bayside area of Queens seized over 60 guns and quantity of ammunition from an area man after a tip about illegal weapons.
Queens District Attorney Richard Brown announced Monday that Ronald Drabman, 60, was arrested over the weekend and charged with a staggering 110 weapons violations, mostly for criminal possession. Following a search warrant of his home’s basement, authorities seized 45 long arms, 23 pistols, a zip gun, a couple of airguns and 50,000 rounds of ammunition.
“The defendant is accused of using his home as a warehouse for illegal firearms – along with tens of thousands of rounds of live ammunition,” Brown said. “This stockpile of weapons poses a great risk to the residents of Queens. It is extremely disturbing to find such an arsenal of firearms in a residential community.”
NYPD Chief of Intelligence Thomas Galati said the gun bust was one of the largest in the department’s history from a single individual and well as what he described as an “unprecedented amount of ammunition.”
The firearms shown off at the conference included a number of collectible arms or at least guns rarely seen in Queens. Among these are an AR with what looks like a Colt Light Machine Gun front end, a Mossberg bullpup shotgun, and a Franchi SPAS-12. One of the rifles seems to be a fairly rare Italian BM59 in a Nigerian pistol grip stock while a Mauser 1934 Pocket Model, Walther P-38, and a Browning Hi-Power rest on table display of pistols.
If convicted, Drabman faces up to 25 years in prison.

Look at those idiots posing with this old guys gun collection. Real hero’s He’s probably been collecting for years planning on selling them off in his retirement. When he started, it wasn’t a crime. Now he’s a “criminal” because the constitution has been violated by the powers that be. How does this “arsenal” pose any greater threat than ONE gun? He can only shoot one at a time. People in their 50′s and 60′s remember when it was a crime to do what the POLICE are doing. Lock and load. They are coming for them all. When the police discover that people won’t roll over for their criminal activity we will be a constitutional republic again.
