He took our money, walked us to the door with a smile, watched us drive away and then....... http://northeastshooters.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=27320 (cut and paste link)
Sounds like Zumbo part II!


Ok, here's the readers digest version ;)  Bass Pro finally opened its door a couple of weeks ago in Foxboro Mass.  A local dealer, Northeast Traders in Attleboro MA got wind that Bass Pro was selling Springfield XD's and 3rd Gen Glocks.  Mass "consumer protection" regulations are similar to CA.  In a nutshell the AG can ban the sale of those pistol companies that are deemed "unsafe" by said AG's office.  
Ted, the owner of Northeast Traders called the AG's office and filed a complaint which led to BPS discontinuance of Springfield and Glock sales.  As it turns out, he was also the person who complained about out of state ammo sales which contributed to bogus law suits and threats to be sued by the MA AG's office.  A couple of companies got so fed up with the MA AG's office they will not even ship cleaning supplies, targets, or camping equipment for that matter! (Cabela's)  (Think Bloomberg's out of state "stings").  If you read the hyperlink (thank you for that) it goes into more detail but needless to say his reasons for doing so were less altruistic and more monetarily based.  In the end it was the law abiding gun owners/sportsmen of MA who suffered.  Thanks Ted!

The "RAT" was identified as Ted at Northeast Trading Company; and, it was by his own admission, no less.

An ignorant attorney should not be involved in the sales of guns, they are way to complicated for someone with a negative educational background to understand.

An education in nonsense and bullshit that somebody just made up does not qualify one to deal with reality.  In fact it disqualifies him or her.

Massachusetts is the laughing stock of think people everywhere.

Heh, heh, someone informed me that my new favorite smiley face which I thought was sorta/kinda like Pancho Villa, is actually considered to be Clint Eastwood.

That would be way different from the look of a wisened older Mexican gentleman, leaning back, smoking a cigar, and taking it all in.

So which is it - Pancho ?  Or Clint ?




Needs a lil scar on its "face" to be Clint.

Ted has been back pedaling since NES found out he was the person to call in suppliers to the AG. It would be interesting to see this email. Please post if you get permission.
