PGH Tactical Firearms Sudden Closing

How long were they in business?

I was looking for something else on the forum and saw a post from 2007 and I thought it was announcing the opening of this place but I could be wrong.

I've never heard of them until about a year ago and thought it was a new business.

6 years according to the sign out front.

Saw something on Facebook last night from wpxi about the owner being arrested?

I despise the sensational nature of that article. However if they dun fucked up, they dun fucked up.

I'm guessing he had some major paper work errors, can't see him doing cash and carry with no paperwork the way he advertised and always seemed to be on the local news for it. Guess time will tell.

I wonder what the "illegal military weapon" was?

Probably forgot to get a tax stamp for a shoulder thing that goes up.

According to the Post Gazette the paperwork errors included not filing paperwork for firearms purchased with cash. While I am not an FFL, methinks that would not be entirely legal.

Yes I heard that and also know how the news exaggerates things. If he did indeed sell guns without paperwork surely he knew it was only a matter of time before getting caught.

I can't wait to hear the real details, should be interesting for sure.
