They allegedly robbed gun collector Roger E. Moore in his home of $60,000 worth of guns, gold, silver, and jewels, transporting the property in the victim's own van.[35] McVeigh had previously visited Moore's ranch. However, doubts have been raised about Nichols and McVeigh's involvement in the robbery for several reasons. The robbers wore ski masks (making a positive identification impossible), and the physical description given did not match Nichols.[37] Also, Aryan Republican Army robbers were operating in the area of Moore's ranch at the time.[37] Moreover, McVeigh did not need to raise money for the bomb, which only cost about $5,000. In all, the truck rental cost about $250, the fertilizer less than $500, and the nitromethane $2,780, with a cheap car being used as a getaway vehicle.[38] McVeigh wrote a letter to Moore in which he claimed that the robbery had been committed by government agents.[39] Despite these doubts, items that were stolen from Moore were later found in Nichols' home and in a storage shed that he had rented.[
