When will this report air?
If you are old enough to remember the 70's, your going to familiar with "We don't want your rifles, it's the handguns we want to ban" ... and one of the active group was that National Coalition to Ban Handguns.
If they get the AWs, the will be back for the handguns. It's only a matter of time.
Didn't we narrowly avoid a handgun ban in Mass years ago? Another thread shows they even want to go after muzzle loaders. Endgame = ban everything.

Poor Mario. Another Massachusetts shop owner duped by the leftist anti-2A media. But this is what the media does. Everyone should know that by now. They don't care about your opinion or point... they only care about supporting the leftist gun-grabbing agenda. How many more times does this have to happen?Nicks sport shop said:"My point in the news story was to inform people that by taking away our AR's the AG has created a gun black market. I should have known that 22 news was not going to air the entire interview and yes that is my fault in hindsight. I shouldn't have done the interview. With that said I believe that is all I need to say on the subject and will not be getting into a Facebook post war with individuals."
When you're a gun store in Massachusetts like Nicks Sport Shop, only MA is your sales region. Blame state law.That post shows a pretty amazing lack of understanding on commerce in today's world. When you're on the internet the world is your sales region, it doesn't matter if people "aren't even from western mass".
Has "working with" the media ever not ended badly for anybody in the firearms trade?...making stupid business decisions like letting that film crew use your shop.
Yeah always funny to see news reporting on intricacies of laws and loopholes unfamiliar with the terms they are using. A receiver isn't a gun at all, and no rifle or rifle component is a "firearm"No. It doesn't.
''Firearm'', a pistol, revolver or other weapon of any description, loaded or unloaded, from which a shot or bullet can be discharged and of which the length of the barrel or barrels is less than 16 inches or 18 inches in the case of a shotgun as originally manufactured; provided, however, that the term firearm shall not include any weapon that is: (i) constructed in a shape that does not resemble a handgun, short-barreled rifle or short-barreled shotgun including, but not limited to, covert weapons that resemble key-chains, pens, cigarette-lighters or cigarette-packages; or (ii) not detectable as a weapon or potential weapon by x-ray machines commonly used at airports or walk- through metal detectors.

So the big question is, does he share his 4473 with Mora?
Nicks sport shop, the gun shop featured in the video, put out a statement
Now that the dust has settled I would like to address all of the people who have posted a one star review of the store. First I believe the people that have given the store one star are not any of my customers and never had any intent to ever shop at the store. I would not even be surprised if these people are from the anti-gun groups to just hurt another gun shop sales. These people will stop at no cost to take our 2nd amendment away. I have noticed most of these people are not even from Western Mass! If you can make a judgment of the store from a 20 second spot you saw on the TV news you are more ignorant than I thought. There is always people who are bully's behind a keyboard. Feel free to stop by the store anytime to discuss guns and gun rights. I understand people have a right to bad mouth what I said on TV but don't judge the store based on that. My customers come to the store because we are honest, fair, and provide the BEST customer service to everyone that walks though that door. Everyone that knows me or the store knows I would never do anything to hurt the gun cause in this state. My point in the news story was to inform people that by taking away our AR's the AG has created a gun black market. I should have known that 22 news was not going to air the entire interview and yes that is my fault in hindsight. I shouldn't have done the interview. With that said I believe that is all I need to say on the subject and will not be getting into a Facebook post war with individuals. Thanks to all my loyal customers of Nicks Sport Shop!

The media once again proving they aren't your friend. This guy is a slow learner.
DO NOT SPEAK TO THE MEDIA, EVER!
How ****ing hard is this? Why do gun shops continue to **** this up, even after the MFS debacle?
If this keeps up we're going to need a MEGATHREAD for gun shops that work hand in hand with the media to
shaft MA gun owners.

Yep. Actually, blame both state and federal law. Outside the greater Boston area, traditional old time shops like Nick's (now in their second or third incarnation under a new owner) tend to be very locally/regionally focused and rather unsophisticated. At least Mario posts an inventory list (and keeps it updated) so that might draw in some traffic from outside Western MA, but probably not very much.When you're a gun store in Massachusetts like Nicks Sport Shop, only MA is your sales region.

"All the way out to Western MA"? OhMyGawd Boris! I hope the Indians didn't attack your wagon train!pretty much, although I do remember driving all the way to the western MA just to get an East German Mak.

I rest my case.
No but I did hear that Boris had to use a sword made from a shovel to defend himself against a dragon on his way out there.
There are two reasons why most shops do this:
- They think that "this time it will be different" (never happens)
- To get free publicity for the shop
Very dumb and short-sighted but that is usually the reasons.

I thought it was plowshares you're supposed to forge into swords?

The power of the media
You say: “Our company is skilled in many other things that are never reported by thebiased media.”
Media selectively quotes you as:
