Specifically, the two stole:
• Remington machine guns, rifles and pistols
• Denel Land Systems machine guns
• Mauser rifles
• Glock pistols
• Sauer & Sohn rifles
• Advanced Armament silencers.
The reason the men were caught is because the National Shooting Sports Foundation, the hosts of SHOT Show, require all manufacturers to remove firing pins from weapons displayed during the show, meaning they're inoperable.
The Department of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) were made aware of the situation on a Wednesday and alerted local Federal Firearm Licensees (FFLs) to “be attentive for any individuals seeking gunsmithing services or, more specifically, firing pins.”
