Bosley Gun Collection For Auction - Oct 20
Published October 6th, 2007
The Glock 9mm that Bob Bosley regularly carried with him is not among the 144 pricey guns being auctioned off this month from the slain Alexandria businessman’s weapon collection.
That garden-variety sidearm ended up being the one gun that cost Bosley the most when his wife, Amy, used it to kill him as he slept in May 2005.
Bosley’s collection of 47 handguns, 97 rifles and two bows - estimated to be worth at least $50,000 - will be auctioned Oct. 20 to raise money to pay debts and possibly provide for the Bosleys’ two children. Included in the collection are antique rifles and Colt handguns, some in their original boxes.
Amy Bosley was sentenced to 20 years in prison after reaching a plea bargain with prosecutors in November. The sentence is the minimum possible in Kentucky for murder. She will have to serve at least 85 percent of her sentence - 17 years - before she is eligible for parole.
A listing of the offerings, along with a handful of photographs, is available online at www.bosleygunauction.com
