In what’s scheduled to be a light meeting, Rowan County Commissioners on Monday will likely declare a dated sub-machine gun as surplus equipment in order to proceed with an auction process.

The gun is a 1928 .45 Caliber Thompson  Sub-Machine Gun. The Rowan County Sheriff’s Office is requesting the gun be declared surplus. It was donated to the sheriff’s office by the U.S. Navy in 1966, according to a memo sent to commissioners and County Manager Aaron Church. The gun’s registration is attached to Monday’s agenda, and states the weapon was registered by the sheriff’s office in 1968.

The sheriff’s department first attempted to sell the gun in 2013. At the time, estimates for the weapon were between $30,000 and $40,000.

This time, the gun will be sold on GovDeals.com.

County Commissioners will consider declaring the gun surplus as part of their consent agenda during Monday’s 6 p.m. meeting at the Rowan County Administration Building — 130 West Innes Street in Salisbury. The meeting is open to the public.

In other business from Monday’s agenda:
