How is a gun shop considered essential?
If you don't have what you need, it's your problem, not the stores.

Yup, just wait until they feel it is no longer an emergency.This. An emergency on your part is not their problem. You'll just have to wait.
You clearly don't see the bigger picture.if you don't have what you need by now......oh well!
Try finding a local ffl without a store front, might still be willing to transfer if they haven't taken down the portal as well.Well.. I was in the process of having something sent to MFS... the shipper just called me and said MFS told them they are closing.
Looks like gun shops will be closing starting tomorrow due to goveners executive orders. How many do you think will follow suit, and how are gun shops considered non essential?
Hard not to agree with you, but as a pro 2A people we've seen it screwed with before but thisI think I saw a video the other day reporting that the people who buy (or try to buy) a gun right now are the same hypocrites who kept telling you that you don't need one (aka SJW/dems/jackasses). I feel bad for the store owners. For all those yet unarmed liberals who all of a sudden feel a need to protect themselves, not so much.
Not sure, but I called a local shop, and I was told they will be closing start tomorrow, since most shops close on mondays we'll have to wait till tomorrow to see if others will follow suit, and if it's mandatory or not.Did Baker specifically call-out gun stores as non-essential? I ask because other states have handled it in different ways. IL, for example, despite having an anti-gun Democratic governor, in his EO, called out “Essential Activities, Essential Government Functions, or to operate Essential Businesses and Operations.” These include information technology equipment manufacturers and suppliers, hardware, food, cleaning supplies, and “firearm and ammunition suppliers and retailers for purposes of safety and security."
cannot they open by appointment. like one of the shops at the mill say.... what the heck, if the owner wanted to risk infection it sounds feasible.Looks like gun shops will be closing starting tomorrow....
The list of "essential services" can be found here (9 pgs long):Did Baker specifically call-out gun stores as non-essential? I ask because other states have handled it in different ways.

How would this meet the requirement that FFLs conduct transfers only at their place of business or gun shows?Start delivering.
You want the gun and the store has the gun?
Transfer the funds, and the store owner shows up with a computer to your house. You pay an extra $30 cash as a "tip", enter the info in the computer and call it a day.
I am not saying they should, I am just saying I would probably try something like that.
Hope so, gotta see if the portal is up for f2f transfers.is nics still up and running as of now? i know they were sluggish recently, but still operating.
The moral of the story the government has created a prohibitive system, and yank it from under our feet. It doesn't matter if you've got guns and ammo galore, you should be upset a constitutional right is being infringed upon. Maybe we should go back to the old days of not needing a middle man.Start delivering.

If the car is owned by the FFL (not the individual). Could you make it an extension of the building?How would this meet the requirement that FFLs conduct transfers only at their place of business or gun shows?

Haha! So basically gun stores, restaurants and hair dressers need to stay home. Thanks Tall Deval! No wonder u f***ed the big dig up!!!The list of people who can't go to work would have been a lot shorter.
Wait till the cops start telling defenseless people they can't respond to their emergency call we'll see how essential the 2a has always been.My issue with the fact that Firearms are not listed as essential really boil down to what they do consider essential.
1) they consider Liquor stores essential. Ok, straight up liquor stores provide no essential products.
2) marijuana retailers. Ok, I get they do provide "medical" marijuana products, but your grasping at straws at this point.
3) Communications. you know damn well if they shutdown the media all helll would be going lose.
So why is my defense, access to ammunition and firearms, any less essential than the media, Marijuana outlets, or Liquor stores?
Don't get me wrong, I have no, current, need to stock up on either ammo or firearms. I'm set for my defense/supply, at the moment. I do see this as an infringement on my rights. They are limiting my access. How long can they shutdown that right before some of you feel its now an infringement? How about the next "emergency", how beig of an emergency does it need to be for the state to remove our access.
Not looking to pick a fight, just thinking out loud.
