Wow, what a hit piece. The video was all of 60s long. They didn’t even mention the NFA or 37mm vs 40mm. You can tell the media is pissed that Obama and Co. is not pushing to ban guns.
I emailed the news director of the local ABC affiliate about this very story, and he replied that there’s not much he can do.
On a related note, he is trying to do better – he is pushing for his staff to take gun education classes. Apparently some viewers are taking them to task about their firearms ignorance.
I loved how the made-up quotation stated that the buyer needed a “Gun Permit”, maybe they were belittling the NFA process as a “Gun Permit”, or maybe it was anti-weenies from New York/New Jersey who somehow think this sort of thing is the law everywhere.

If it was as easy as making a phone call ABC, then buy it. That would make for a funny story.
