I may have missed something but in The Walking Dead Season 7, Episode 4 - Service The Saviours came to Alexandria and took ALL of the guns, After Negan remembered that Rick and his group had "an assload of guns.

They went through the invoice, and when they realised that they were missing 2 guns Olivia was threatened, until the guns were found in Spencer's house.

Rick even handed over the rifle that Michonne was practicing with and attempting to hide.

From then on in the Alexandrians are not shown to have any guns except for:

Rick when Daryl gives him his Python back

and

Rosita with the gun she got in Episode 4 with the bullet made by Eugene

The focus of Season 7, Episode 12 - Say Yes was Rick and Michonne trying to find guns to fulfil their bargain to Jadis.

How then, at the end of this episode

Rosita leaves Alexandria and turns up at the Hilltop, in what appears to be a confrontation with Sasha. However Rosita tells Sasha how the group aren't ready to fight Negan yet and wants Sasha's help in killing him. She then opens a bag and pulls out a scoped rifle.

This looks like the rifle that Sasha has used throughout the series. Sasha even give a bit of a look that made me think she was being reunited with her old gun. How did this rifle miss being taken by the Saviours and why was no mention made of it till now.

Especially as Rosita went through the hassle of getting a bullet made.

Or is it just that Rosita stole one of the guns that Rick and Michonne found, that looks like the one Sasha used to have and it just hasn't been noticed yet?

    I think Rosita takes this scoped rifle from those ones which Rick and Michonne have found. Jadis doesn't want to see the list of all found guns, so she probably doesn't know if there's a special rifle missing or exchanged.

    @jules was this shown though? were they taken from Jadis' share, surely shed have noticed one missing. If its from Ricks share I would have thought Rick would have noticed one was missing as he he was aware of the numbers found and the numbers given to Jadis. Mar 8, 2017 at 10:43

Caution: This whole answer is a spoiler.

The sniper rifle Rosita handed her is a quite different rifle to Sasha's old one.

Sasha's old gun: Sasha's old gun

Sasha's new gun: Sasha's new gun

Even without the visual proof above, the "new gun" plot was reinforced for me when Sasha checked it out in a way one checks out a new object rather than a familiar one, and gives an approving look.

Rick went back to Alexandria before going to see Jadis. We know this because Rosita et al are with Rick when they visit Jadis to drop off the guns.

Since the return to Alexandria was not shown, Rick could have stayed there quite some time and Rosita could have had ample opportunity to take one of the many firearms Rick brought back, their being so numerous it is entirely conceivable that one could go missing without being noticed.

  • Good points on the not knowing how long they were back in Alexandria, they may also not have counted the guns taken prior to that. Both myself and my other half thought it was Sasha's old gun but we probably are well wrong on that. Mar 8, 2017 at 11:42
