Way to go Sheriff!

A big corporation that has a few retail firearm locations stopped selling "self-loading" rifles to non law enforcement people on Dec. 26th. A GA sheriff sent an email to the company saying he disagrees with the decision and will no longer seek bids for firearms from them!

By the way, guns save lives is an awesome site. A lot of good stuff on it!

HA! Think of how much money Dana Safety Supply is losing on that decision. They might be the only store in the USA that actually have any "assault weapons" in stock anymore.

Good job officer. We need more of that kind of support.

Ha! They are really getting hammered! And the last FB post they had on Dec. 22nd said they have a few ar's left and to "Come and Get them".

We definitely need more of his caliber. Way to stand up for the people!

Nice move sheriff, glad my lgs's didnt do that

Hehe, "Sparks" the former LEO guy in the comments says you don't need a semi/auto for home defense because it is not tactful, and you don't need it to hunt with because you look silly.
Glad the Sheriff made that decision!

Thanks for the post, I think I have been to that store but I went to a lot of gunstores in the Atlanta area while at Benning. Kudos to the Sheriff for telling them to get lost, except for a couple of liberals posting they are getting slammed on FB. I don't know what these companies are thinking? Why they think capitulating to the anti-gunners is going to do them any good is beyond me, it's not like they were customers or anything. Like i've said before this isn't 1994 anymore, EBR's are much more mainstream now, everybody uses them, even the cops were slamming them on FB for denying sales to everybody.

Actually I suspect that our Sheriff would do the same.

Another ***** Bag, Jack-Booted LEO trying to **** on the 2ND Amend!

Oh....well, maybe not, but they're still all bad!

That is one stand-up Sheriff. He made the right decision, and he struck exactly the right tone in the letter to the supplier. No histrionics, just a beautiful, clear explanation. Well done.

My mom used to own a home on Oconee Co. The police out there were always stand up people when it came to gun owner rights. I'm a bit saddened that a store I used to frequent in GA has taken that stance though.

Good to see him standing up! Hopefully more will follow suit!

Dupe

I have the world of respect for this guy. I went to the suppliers Facebook page and left a comment. I hope everyone does.

Funny cop joke:
Hello, is this the Police?"
"Yes. What do you want?"
"I'm calling to report about my neighbor Billy Smith! He is hiding marijuana inside his firewood."
"Thank you very much for the call, sir."
The next day, the Police descend on Billy’s house. They search the shed where the firewood is kept. Using axes, they bust open every piece of wood, but find no marijuana. They swore at Billy and left
The phone rings at Billy's house: "Hey, Billy Bob! Did the Police come?"
"Yeah!"
"Did they chop your firewood?"
"Yep."
"Merry Christmas, Buddy"
