One's a Norinco, the other is a beat to shit Yugo. (Links will be dead after a few months).
Both them are:
LE/MILITARY PURCHASE ONLY
You must provide LE/Military Credentials at time of purchase.
You must be one of the following:
Sworn LEO (Law Enforcement Officer) State, County, or Local
Federal LEO - F.B.I, US Marshal, DEA, DHS, et cetera

Retired LEO with “retired” credentials including Federal, State, County and Local

There's not a whit of explanation as to WHY they're not for sale to those untainted by government employment.
They sell AR's to the unwashed, so it's baffling.
As far as I know there is no legal requirement for them to be so restrictive. Your point that they sell ARs to non-LE/.mil is a good one. In most states that have AWBs it is ARs that are restricted and SKSs usually aren't since they come with a 10 round non-removable (without a tool) magazine. I wonder if they aren't confused somewhere by 922r or confused because these include bayonets (perfectly legal on a pre-ban Norinco or on a Yugo). Or possibly they are just confused in general or are major LE/.mil sycophants? I dunno... makes no sense. I'd send them a message asking why except I'm sure if i got a answer back it would be hostile like most a-hole sellers... I asked one seller who had a top break revolver I liked why he wouldn't ship to a C&R FFL03 holder on firearm that was obviously C&R eligible... the response I got was basically "you gawdamned C&R people are all shady and trying to circumvent the law and put us poor dealers out of business so F off".
ReplyDeleteI got an answer from them. Part of the purchase deal they made was that they only be sold to LEO.
ReplyDeleteI think Willard has retired LEO papers...
