Got a call about 3pm from this lady who asked if I sell Handguns.  So I responded asking what she had in mind and what she was looking for.  She said she wasn't interested in one.  She called because her sister lives in Queencreek and she was calling fom Massachussetts.  The sister in Queencreek stated that she was going to buy a handgun today and kill herself with it.  She just wanted to tell me her name so that I wouldn't sell her sister a gun.  WTF??  I didn't bother to get her name because I don't have any handguns in stock.  (I should have so that I can post it here in case any one knows her)  I gave her a few other shops' names to call.  Hope I don't see her sister on the news tonight as a suicide.  WOW!!  Anyone else get the same call??

She called here to it seems... Our call didn't go as far (Russell told her we don't do walk in sales or stock handguns)...

if you ever get another call like that direct them to call 602 222-9444 to initiate an emergent mental health petition

Nobody recommended that she bring her sister out to Massachusetts where it's much harder to get a gun?  You guys get the weirdest calls.

My bad, it was Baltimore MD not Mass.

Do you have her phone number?

So a woman in Baltimore is calling all local gunshops in the Phoenix area to keep her sucidial sister in Queen Creek from buying a gun.

I would think a call to a suicide hotline in phoenix or even the local police here to give them all the info on the sister in Queen Creek might also be in order - or maybe she already did that.

Wow. That is an odd one.

I wonder if you could notify NICS so that she wouldn't get approved if a check was done?

what if it is a ploy by anti gun people to get you to sell one less firearm?
