East Windsor gun store? East Windsor? What a coincidence.

Saw an item on CNN yesterday where a reporter went undercover to three or four gun shows in Georgia and Tenn.....
In three cases he paid cash ...didn't even give his name but walked away with a half dozen handguns and one of those Ar 15 whatever rifles.. the civilian version of the M-16.
One dealer commented that a handgun had been sold to him by a policeman.. and now he was re-selling it to a stranger with a fistfull of cash.


It's that sort of behavior that eventually will get more firearms
transactions banned here. Every firearms purchase I've had in Maryland
was through a dealer/holder of a Federal Firearms License (FFL) who
handled the entire procedure by the book. The procedure was simple, and
didn't take more than a few minutes. For handguns, there's a waiting
period while the state police do their own background check. When the
clearance comes through, the FFL calls and you go pick up your pistol.
I don't see what the big whoop was about. It should be done that way.
