While investigating the death of a Los Angeles man, police discovered an arsenal of over 1,200 firearms and roughly two tons of ammunition, authorities said Monday.

Los Angeles Police Department Cmdr. Andrew Smith called the number of firearms "staggering." Many had never been fired and some were wrapped in boxes with price tags still attached, according to the Los Angeles Times.

"Our truck couldn't carry it all," said Smith. "We had to go back and make another trip."

Coroner's officials said Monday evening that the man had not yet been identified and they still have not determined how he died, according to the Talking Points Memo.

There were no signs of foul play in the man's death nor was their any indication that he was linked to criminal activity, however, detectives want to find out why he had so many guns and are examining them to determine if any have been linked to crimes, according to Fox News.

"We have a lot of work to do," said Smith. "Running the background, history and legality of these weapons is going to require a tremendous amount of time. It's not a crime to have a large number of weapons so long as they were legal to own and legally obtained. We want to make sure that's the case."
