Miami Gun Rhapsody

Published on May 05, 2005

Although Barreto is not a member of the NRA or the ARA, he is an avid hunter. His hunting rifles feature an array of semiautomatic and double-pump shotguns. Barreto still owns his service revolvers from his MPD days and a .32 caliber Ruger he received from his fellow commission colleagues on the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. The pistol has the commission's logo engraved on the grip. "But I'm very careful with my guns," Barreto says. "All of them are under lock and key."
