Default Max Motors Targeted by ATF

What? Giving away AK-47s with the purchase of anew car a problem? It's about the best idea I've ever heard.

To be clear, he isn't giving away AK-47's. He is giving away a voucher for the value of an AK to be spent however you like at whatever gun store he's getting all the free publicity with.

I know. It's fucking genius! He is paying a price though with vendors, creditors, GM and the gub-ment who see things a bit differently.

Once again I find myself asking: don't we have anything better to do or anything more important to worry about?

Vendors, creditors and the government should all fuck off.


The franchise owner does have to abide by the corporate rules though so I can see where GM (and only GM) would have a bitch in the issue since they own the name.


In my honest opinion though, most of the time an issue like this comes up, we should all just STFU, let it run it's 15 second course and get on with real shit. The second you throw a light on it, everyone has something to say and then Mr. Muller (who aint dumb by the way) gets a fuckload of the very best kind of publicity.


The free kind.

100% correct! Except for the STFU part. It's fun to bitch and moan and I'm happy for that colorful fella to get a bunch of free publicity.

I recall seeing banks and other business offer the same for deposits or purchases; shotguns and hunting rifles were the hook, but you could have purchased an AR or AK with a voucher.
