Third time is a charm for George Zimmerman. After two failed attempts, the former neighborhood watchman apparently auctioned his gun for more than $120,ooo on Wednesday.

Zimmerman’s Kel-Tec PF-9 9mm pistol, the infamous firearm used to kill unarmed, 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, has been reportedly sold, according to TMZ and the Orlando Sentinel. 

Also, during the earlier morning hours on May 18, UnitedGunGroup.com, the website hosting Zimmerman’s auction, posted to their Facebook page that “he [Zimmerman] currently is in the process of vetting several offers and verifying funds.”

In the statement, United Gun Group (UGG) said the site had hosted “two auctions running simultaneously, one for the pre-qualified bidders, one for the public.”

Details have yet to be released of the private auction, but TMZ reported that the winner was selected from among 7 bidders participating in that listing.
