A husband and wife who own a gun shop in Exeter face state felony charges for allegedly failing to pay sales tax, evading income tax and filing fraudulent income tax returns.
The Nebraska Department of Revenue says Rob and Hope Androyna took in $3.78 million from their business, Exeter Arms, from 2009 to 2012. That included nearly $200,000 in local and state sales taxes, but they failed to turn that money over to the state, Revenue Inspector Marcus Ford said in an affidavit written in support of warrants issued for the couple's Jan. 16 arrest.
The affidavit says the couple also failed to report profit, income or wages from the business until they filed their 2012 income tax return in October 2013, when they were under investigation by the Revenue Department.
Also, the document says, Rob Androyna got unemployment payments in 2010 and 2011, a time period during which the Revenue Department estimates the couple would have had income of $445,215 and $398,363, respectively, from the business.
The department estimates the Androynas owe the state $281,238 for back sales taxes, with penalties, and $198,571 for income taxes, with penalties.

My God! If you're making $500,000/yr why oh why would you do something stupid like not pay your dang taxes!

Felons once convicted, are restricted from being around guns. I see this pair as looking for a new line of work, if the news folks have a legit story. Lets hope all blows over, and all is OK.
Their web site lists them as doing concealed carry classes. I do not see a Rob or Hope listed as instructors for NSP.

I hope they rot. Rob is a thief who refuses to follow through on his word...at least with me. I've posted my experience on several review sites and he still refuses to return my property. Karma is alive and well.
