Preface:
Mods, Please understand no one is being slandered through this post, the subject of the controversy has publically admitted his actions. This story needs to be told. It is already listed on this blog and may be posted on others.
This is unfolding in the Peoples Republic of Massachusetts where one man almost single-handedly crippled the gun culture.
There is no “short version” so all I can say is go grab another cuppa coffee and read through these threads.
OK I guess there is a concise version:
Basically one gun shop owner made a call to the AG’s office because Bass Pro Shops was selling new Glocks & other handguns which did not meet the AG’s consumer safety standards.
There is no published list of the AG’s regs, although the regs can be found after diligent searching by one who knows where to look.
Note: for a retailer to lawfully sell a handgun here it must be on the "Offical approved roster" as well on the "Secret list" held by the AG's office.
Same store owner also is responsible for lawfully licensed individuals now unable to purchase ammo / reloading components through the mail or internet, profoundly impacting the ability for us to enjoy shooting sports as well as our supposed “rights” here in the PRM.
This is one reason why we never reveal our sources when / if we are able to locate a vendor willing to ship here.
So basically, one man is responsible for helping to severly restrict access and availibility to the shooting sports.
Bass Pro-On the wrong side of the AG already?

I’d rather not see this post turned into a “Let’s bash Massachusetts thread. ” or get deleted.
