Chicago Sun-Times reporter, columnist, and editorial board member, Neil Steinberg doesn’t like gun owners and he’s really crude. One time he wrote, “Guns are a kind of masturbatory aid of millions of Americans who imagine themselves supermen.”

Steinberg claimed that it’s super easy to buy a gun like the AR-15 and went to Maxon’s shooters in Des Plaines, Illinois.

The woke liberal reporter chose a Smith & Wesson Model M&P15 Sport which is an AR-15-styled semi-automatic weapon and a 30-round magazine.

However, when it was time to complete the sale the gun store refused to sell him the rifle.

According to the clerk, Steinberg yelled, “you sell to terrorists, you sell to insane people, but you won’t sell to a reporter?”

The clerk informed him that his background check revealed a “history of alcohol abuse and domestic violence.”

Sadly, this will have no effect at all on this idiot in particular, and the rest of the idiots like him.

Bullshit. The NIC will only tell the clerk if you've been approved or not. Nothing else. If you get denied, they very pointedly won't say why, because the denial may be purely political. You pissed off some politician or bureaucrat and they just don't like you, so no 2nd Amendment rights for you, peasant.

If you get denied, you have to petition them to find out why, and if it's because some politician had you put on the list because he didn't like you, you then have to get a lawyer and go through the courts just to find out why you were denied. And that's just the first step. Then you would have to sue to get your name off the denied list and get your rights back.

Oh. Okay. That explains it. Another professional liar that doesn't know any more about the subject than (((Steinberg))) does.

You sound like a man who has had some experience with. What can you share that would help the rest of us with this nanny-state-for-the-nigs shitshow?

Only what I've heard, same as you.

Back in the dawn of time, when dinosaurs roamed the earth, I was an agent with the US Border Patrol. One day I went down to my local mom and pop gun shop to pick up a firearm I'd ordered. When they ran the NIC, it came back as being on hold, pending a supervisor's approval. Now the only thing that had changed in my life had been my joining he Border Patrol, so I was, of course, somewhat curious, so I asked.

The shop owner told me that if someone is denied, they never ever say why. In my case, because I was now technically a "fed", my name now was on a separate list and required a NIC supervisor to give approval, and he was at lunch. So I had to wait 2 more hours for some bureaucrat in Morganton, WV to wander their way back from the local burger joint and put in his code to unlock my, "constitutionally protected right", or some facsimile thereof.

As far as having to sue to find out why your were denied or to get your rights back, that's from other peoples personal horror stories.

LOL you can’t make this shit up. Liberal moron gets upset because “the current system doesn’t work.”

Then he tests the system, finds that it works, and is then mad about that precisely because in actuality, HE IS ONE OF THE VERY SCUMBAGS HE CLAIMS SHOULDN’T BE ALLOWED TO OWN A GUN.

Buh? Does the background check FFLs use actually give details about why a check was refused? Was this dealer performing additional background checks? Something doesn't smell right here.

The charges were dismissed after Steinberg completed alcohol treatment and that was how he was able to obtain a Firearms card in Illinois.

Seeing that Steinberg had a history of alcohol and domestic violence the gun store decided not to sell the rifle to the reporter.

Yes, it appears that the gun shop owner is exercising additional diligence in his background checks. Proving that the people who typically do illegal things with guns often obtained them illegally, because the firearms industry in America is quite careful to try not to sell to criminals and nut jobs.

Based FFL

Possibly even more based than initially thought. It could be that he saw Steinberg and just used the record as an excuse. One can hope.

Nics only tells the dealer approve deny or delay they don't give details. If the guy did check yes on the addicted question or the domestic violence question and the guy at the store reviewed the 4473 before calling Nics he would then possibly deny the sale.

Maybe the gun store owner has read one of this media whore’s bullshit articles and assumed his shop was the target of a media hit job when this dipshit filled out the paperwork and made his name known.

Then runs background check and exclaims “checkmate”. Proceeds not to sell weapon to obviously unhinged liberal fuckhead.

Liberal fuckhead gets upset because the system worked, not only proving his hypothesis to be bullshit, but as an added insult to injury, also inherently classified him as one of the very people who he claims to hate: a nut job who has no business owning a firearm.
