(CNN) -- A recent search of the home of George Zimmerman's girlfriend uncovered five weapons, including an AR-15, and more than 100 rounds of ammunition, court documents filed Monday show.

Zimmerman, acquitted in the death of Trayvon Martin this year, was arrested last week at the home, which he shares with his girlfriend, on suspicion of his having pointed a shotgun at her.

He was released on bail and has entered a plea of not guilty.

A search of the home turned up three handguns, a 12-gauge shotgun, a rifle and 106 rounds of ammunition, including two AR-15 magazines, according to a search warrant.

Three handgun holsters, a pack of gum, a religious pendant, a flashlight, a pocket knife, sanitizing wipe, a soft-sided gun case and a combination lock were also recovered during the search.

At the time of his arrest, Zimmerman had two cell phones. An affidavit, filed Monday, says he told authorities he recorded the altercation with his girlfriend on his cell phone.

A shotgun is now classified as patio décor....according to Joe.

The list sounds like a quote from Dr. Strangelove:
Major T. J. "King" Kong: Survival kit contents check. In them you'll find: one forty-five caliber automatic; two boxes of ammunition; four days' concentrated emergency rations; one drug issue containing antibiotics, morphine, vitamin pills, pep pills, sleeping pills, tranquilizer pills; one miniature combination Russian phrase book and Bible; one hundred dollars in rubles; one hundred dollars in gold; nine packs of chewing gum; one issue of prophylactics; three lipsticks; three pair of nylon stockings. Shoot, a fella' could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff.

An article from the day of his arrest said the police found the shotgun locked in a case.

Samantha owned a gun too. One of those guns is probably hers.

Zimmerman needs to just go dark for a while. This guy keeps making bad decisions with the company he keeps.

The more I know about Zimmerman, the more he seems to fit into the category of "dumbass."

Did George have a record before this whole thing started? Seems like he’s in one spate after another since acquittal.

It only seems that way because any minor thing is a national story, eg a speeding ticket.

Anyone who has burnedoff over 100 rounds at the range, secretly raise your hand out of sight of any snoopcams or paranoid government agencies.
Then ponder this: they freak out over 100 rounds in our possession, yet never bat an eye at the billions of rounds government is buying.

This is getting good.

He wants to go to jail. I think he has some weird survivor’s guilt or a big case is PTSD. Nobody does the things he has done after a big case like this. You don’t see Casey Anthony out doing stupid things. She has been very smart throughout her aftermath. He should follow her lead.

He's never been found guilty of anything though I am sure he feels tortured and horrible a young man died (despite him trying to probably kill George at the time).

Both women in his recent life were trying to sell stories about George and had every reason to try to make it look bad for more money or potential lawsuits. George is a target and when he is released the next time he should swear off women and non-family for a couple of years IMO.

Weapons he always declared and that are legal. He has very few rounds of ammo considering though.

He is or was a liberal and therefore would be in the company of liberal women which are going to be no good anyhow.
George needs to take two years off from all but family till the dust settles IMO.

The wife just gave papers for divorce to George, so I guess he will be glad to share his half of the 2.5 million in debt with her as a part of the marriage debt. Good luck with that.

Apart from the short supply of ammo, George’s place sounds like a typical American household. You never know when you might have to shoot someone, especially when all of black America is gunning for you.

Hmm...safe to say George is underarmed. And the ammo? Not even enough to practice with.

WhooHoo! GZ recorded the altercation on his cell phone!

Zimmerman asks for the return of several items seized by police which he says are “not related to the [domestic violence] charges in any way and are not considered evidence” in the case. Those items: an Apple iPhone, a Blackberry cell phone, a small hand-held flashlight and a pocket knife.

The video has likely been disappeared.
