    An Indiana woman who purchased a laptop case from a yard sale was surprised to discover that it contained a loaded handgun.

    Rhonda Milligan purchased the laptop from the Evansville Christian Life Center sale and didn't realize that it also contained a loaded revolver until she got home. After making the discovery, she called police and returned to the Christian Center, but they had already closed.

    As noted in the comments, the original owner probably passed away and the family didn't know there was a gun in the bag before donating it.

    Dang it! Why do I never get lucky like that.

    And called the police??? Obviously she didn't tell her husband first.

    I posted this earlier with a link to the video. It is astounding how distraught she is at finding a "fully loaded" gun. Looks like a nice model 10 taper barrel snubbie with a tyler t-grip too.

    Ah.,.. silly me... I never would have thought to look in a forum for non-gun related posts for a gun-related story. :)
