There's a likelihood that an Alton crime not far away, and not that long ago, was committed.

Yes, I think they said it was stolen.

Stolen from Sanborton I believe what was reported.

Yes, I saw that.

But that was only the first crime. The last time it left the possessor's hands, it was tossed into the lake—likely, following other
crimes; that is, until the day it was fired.

It was likely fired near Alton (where it was found), and the perp didn't want to be caught with the gun that matched any fired bullets.

Even made of stainless steel—as this firearm is—the rusted parts don't look that bad.

This spring, when I recovered a chisel dropped from my dock just two years ago, about half of it had corroded away!
