Lawmakers ask store to stop selling assault-style rifles (Maine)

[Shark_Cage]

I think these representatives need a delivery from shitexpress.com

aaaand the pissing contest is on.....
GOP lawmakers send letter of support to Kittery Trading Post

 

[Squire]

Smart for KTP to enjoy the free publicity, (more) business as usual, don't enter the fray.

[babygorilla]

I'm thinking that the next time some of these shit bags get together and pull a stunt like this that a bunch of us show up with Tar and Feathers and counter protest......

FIFY

 

[Asaltweapon]

Might have to stop by for some shopping on my way southbound. I hope my "Black Guns Matter" tee shirt is up here.

 

[HuntMaine]

Already stopped I thought along with increase to 21 age requirement. Then again Kittery TP is not a place to purchase firearms. Better to go to a smaller local place. IMHO

KTP may or may not be a first choice for new firearms, but it's hard to beat their eclectic collection of used guns.

 

[Paul455]

Unbelieveable that these pols would harass a LEGAL business.

The people who vote need to know that there are no boundries for the left wing stupidity.

Yup. You have to have your eyes open and know what you are looking for.

 

[Shooters-Hooksett]

Sure, like the same thing wouldn't happen if they were in Portsmouth.
Countdown to the same thing happening to Riley's, Shooters Outpost, etc....
Hold the line wherever you are.

When hell has icicle's!

 

[PatMcD]

It will never happen at Rileys, Shooters or any other establishment that is pretty much exclusively a gun shop.........what are these moonbats going to threaten them with since they dont shop there to begin with.......

KTP sells goods other than firearms.....there's a reason why they are targeting it along with dicks etc.......

Ok. If you say so. Just saying I wouldn't be surprised.

 

[amm5061]

They can and probably will try. The dickheads pushing a boycott against KTP almost certainly do not, and likely never have or will, shop there.

 

[Radtekk]

I'm thinking that the next time some of these shit bags get together and pull a stunt like this that a bunch of us show up with signs/etc and counter protest......

I'll bring the "etc". Any particular caliber? And I'll wear my "Liberalism is a mental disorder" sign/shirt.

Got my 10 gauge there.

They do have great deals on used stuff. You can also find sales on new guns there often if you keep an eye out.

Picked up a new Ruger SR-22 for the wife a few months ago for $299.

 

[ridleyman]

I think I'll ask those legislators to stop procreating.

 

[Ringworm]

Probably all transplants from other states.

Reminds me of the story of the Salem, NH Chief of Police who arbitrarily denied a R&P permit to someone. CoP was a Mass transplant who didn't understand the Constitution, and NH summarily smacked him upside the head stating he had ZERO authority to deny without cause or proof.

Gun Owners of Maine

Better yet. Sign up and show up but go to our side. That will ruffle some feathers.

 

[Shark_Cage]

KTP was my first chance as a lad to browse actual firearms. I loved it (and still do).

I can’t make the counter protest, give them hell, time for civility is over.

I know, 2 months later and 6 pages later. . . .

Ya know, you never see "Lawmakers ask local doctors to stop over-prescribing opioids. Story at 11!"

 

[Prepper]

What? I like KTP but I thought they mainly had Fudd guns. I don't recall an ARs, if that is what they refer to by military weapons (which they aren't)

ktp has plenty of msr's on their shelves. lots of accessories too.

If you haven't been in a while they have a whole section of ARs behind the counter. Many other "military" style rifles as well. Many are consignment guns, but an equal amount are new.

Ah OK it has been a while since I have been there.

Entryism - it's a thing.

When I attended the Sep'13 joint committee hearings,
I had no posse, didn't recognize a soul.

So I sat in the middle of the astroturfed antis.

(I failed to score a T-shirt but I did get a few discarded placards.
I figure I'll auction them some day as "official Pro2A target backers").

The woman on my left ("Gladys",

not the epidemiology professor) tried to chat me up.
When she realized from my singularly ambiguous and noncommittal answers
that I was not one of them, freaked out. Severely.

Started yelling that I had to move.

I ignored her studiously,
refused to acknowledge her outburst in any way.

Eventually her minders had to talk her off the ledge;
told her I had the right to sit there.


There must be some passive-aggressive approaches to picket line mellow harshing.

Thats good, government should keep their fvcking noses out of medicine completely. Everything government touches turns to shit.
The opioids that people are overdosing on are not the 20 and 30 pill precsriptions that doctors are writing for righteous patients in pain post surgery or otherwise, they are being smuggled into the country by the ton across our borders both north and south.
