Gun Dealer Stings Back

Mayor Bloomberg has been hit with another lawsuit in connection with his campaign to crack down on illegal guns.

A South Carolina gun dealer became the second storeowner to sue after Mr. Bloomberg targeted it a few months ago in an undercover sting operation designed to stymie illegal gun sales.

The lawsuit, filed in South Carolina, seeks damages and claims that the city smeared the storeowner's reputation.
Looks like my latest Guns Magazine article, just now on the newsstands but written last June, wasn't that far off the mark...

    Supreme Court Says Muzzleloaders are Legally Firearms

    The ruling comes in an appeal by a convicted felon who says he thought he was allowed to own a black powder rifle. Such rifles are excluded from the federal definition of firearms.

    A spokesman for the Wyoming Game and Fish Department says the ruling will come as a blow to some Wyoming residents who have felony convictions in the past but who are now dedicated black powder hunters.

    Governor Freudenthal says he would favor changing the state law to allow convicted felons to continue to hunt with black powder guns.

    The court ruling released Wednesday upholds the conviction of Frank Alan Harris in a Casper court on a charge of being a felon in possession of a firearm.

    According to the court ruling, Harris was previously convicted of aggravated robbery and robbery.

    You mean it's not legal to deliberately send people across state lines to violate federal law while engaging in fraudulent transactions?
