These excerpts are from an article by WSOC-TV's undercover reporter Dave Flaherty. This is from November 2001 and may be old news but what the heck. It's anti-gun show propganda.
QUOTE [b] "Inside the shows you will find every weapon imaginable and plenty of people willing to buy, sell and trade." [/b]
Mr. Flaherty is implying you can buy claymore mines, Patriot missiles and tactical suitcase nukes along with Remington 870s.
QUOTE [b] " 9 Investigates did see a lot of people and police at the gunshows but few of them trying to stop suspected gun sales." [/b]
To Mr. Flaherty EVERY sale is suspect. You can't buy that! That's a gun! Put it back!
QUOTE [b] " In Asheville (NC,) at a show 3 women bragged about the business they had done that morning. Those women sold eight guns in 30 minutes and are not required by law to ask for a purchase permit." [/b]
YOU GO GIRLS!!!!! Keep selling at the Asheville Civic Center! (I live near Asheville). We need more pro-gun babes.
QUOTE [b]" Theres no background check for individual sales of shotguns and rifles and Captain Pummell thinks thats a problem." [/b]
What kind of problem Capt. Pummell? You're obviously in favor of de-facto registration. My 870 isn't a problem and I can sell it if I want to!
