A Virginia man arrested two weeks ago on an illegal gun charge was allegedly concealing the largest arsenal of “finished explosive devices” ever seized by the FBI, the bureau said in court documents.

Brad Spafford, 36, was found to have over 150 homemade explosive devices, an illegal short-barrel rifle, a target-practice photograph of President Biden, and bomb-building materials at his Norfolk farm, prosecutors claim, according to Court Watch.


Spafford was taken into custody outside his farm on Dec. 17 based on a criminal complaint alleging he was in possession of an unregistered short-barrel rifle, according to Court Watch.
