[FrankTank83]

I hope this isnt a dupe, just saw it this evening. Looks like the gun store owner is questioning the intent of Mr. Kelly's purchase .

Ahahahahhahahahahahha that's fantastic!

Good for the store for finally doing this, but IMHO they never should of sold it to him in the first place. They reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. He would be one on the top of my list.

That's the direction I thought the story was going originally.

Good for the gun shop owner and give Kelly back his money for the rifle.

Hahahaha. Anti-gun activist gun purchase DENIED! Justice.

Boycott ALL sales to Anti-Gun People..

Arizona, YES ALL of the firearms dealers in this state and all other states should avoid/refuse sales to Mark Kelly and all who are out to undermine the 2ND. Amendment...Bill

I hope in future Major Tom is not cleared for purchases.

And what happened to the Object Lesson he was going to conclude by turning the "weapon of war" over to the police? I guess some crazy hillbilly will buy it and go commit an act of slaughter in a GFZ somewhere.

Major Tom, YOU could have prevented this, if only you had completed the transaction!!

What a maroon.

Kelly, a former astronaut, said he intended to eventually hand in the rifle to Tucson police but planned to keep the handgun.

Why does he need a handgun? Doesn't he know they're just as evil?
Its good to see a gunshop putting principle above profit and refusing to sell to the anti-gunners.

How easy was that purchase again?

 

[TTravis]

Somehow I don't think the anti people figured on that. Way to go gun store owner for giving him back a dose of his own carp!

 

[TTravis]

Dupe

I do not understand the point he was "trying" to make. Mark Kelly is a career military man, in good standing with his security clearances. He is married to a US congress woman.

Why shouldn't be be able to purchase a semi auto sporting rifle?

The guy has the clout and authority to waltz into the base armorers building and sign out a 50 cal machinegun.

If his mindset is typical of Career military people, we need to be afraid, very afraid.

I disagree. If the shop owner had simply refused him immediately we wouldn't have had all this fun laughing about it! I much prefer that it turned out this way. We get the photographic proof he's a hypocrite AND his purchase is refused.

Yes, I know that...has been pointed out 3 times now...

 

[jwh20]

Could it be that doing business with Mr. Kelly has been BAD for this gun shop's business? I'm pretty sure I'd be unlikely to shop there...

 

[SmokinSigs357]

No. Actually, I think that it is a brilliant move by the gun shop. Covering their ass while thumbing their nose (or flippin' the bird) to the antis and the media.
