Glenn,

Honestly I don't recall. It all just seemed so unfair and goofy to me that I got mad without retaining any of the details. I used to go to his tables at the show and he had lots of nice stuff. My friend bought a new (but real old) Rem. 700 in .35 Whelen from him. Beautiful rifle and it printed real well.

To loose your rights over a box of .22 - that just drives me nuts! To loose your rights over something that isn't even illegal where you normally are - that's one reason I don't go anywhere, I don't like their laws but feel constrained to obey them, as long as I'm in their state/country.

Someone on here must recall this case. I'll find time to do a search and post the results if I find anything out. Seems like this Supreme Court case would have supported his position.

Regards,
Andrew

There was an FFL that used to have a table at the Spring gun show, whose company name was Tommy's Guns. This was a few years ago.

Apparently he went to Mexico - just over the border for dinner? - and got arrested for having abox of .22 in his truck. This is all from memory, apologies if I've messed up the details.

Anyway, he lost his gun rights and FFL and, within the last year or two, seems to me went to court to get reinstated; and lost.

Do any of you recall this, and have any information? Maybe I've got it all wrong but it seems to me having ammo is a felony in Mexico but not here, and that felony charge is what cost him here in the US.

Any info appreciated.

Regards,
Andrew
