I wouldn't worry too much about that, I'm willing to bet any pending NFA items are now in possession of the ATF until proper approval and transfer to rightful owners.


Don't quote me on that, it's just what I would do as the ATF were I in that position.

That's assuming they haven't given it to a Mexican drug cartel.

Touche sir.
It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.

A little update. I received a postcard from Exeter Arms last Saturday informing my paperwork was back. It stated that I could pickup my suppressor on Thursday between 2-4 pm. I had to work, but my wife volunteered to pick it up for me (she's on my trust). She arrived at about 2 pm today and she said there was actually several people there to pick up purchases. The store was completely empty except for a table to fill out forms. Apparently the shop is only open 1 day a week for 2 hours.

Who was working there?

Hope? Rob? Someone else?

Glad you got your can.  I'm sure that's a big relief.

Oh, and someone needs to teach Rob how to run an iron.

Maybe he will learn that in prison.

I did not know the guy, never did business with him, but I feel sorry his circumstances turned out the way they did.    His own fault or not, he has a child, and she will loose a dad to this mess.   Got to feel sadness for the way life goes sometimes. 

Not a fan of suicide,  but it is a wonder more people do not exit stage left once the floor falls out from them.   I spoke to someone that is close to this, and final chapters have not been published in this story.   Anyone close to that family should keep in touch, with hugs.

i was at DE Guns today and a guy was talking about getting a suppressor.  he said he was going to get it from Exeter Arms since they are the only dealer around here.  i went up to him and said he's no longer in business and a felon.  i can't believe people don't know about this!  if i had an NFOA pamphlet, i would have given it to him.

Rough day for the Androynas:

Quote
The Exeter couple who withheld almost $200,000 in state and local sales taxes will head to prison next month, a Lancaster County District judge ordered Thursday.

Robert "Rob" Androyna and his ex-wife, Hope Androyna, who ran Exeter Arms, a firearms dealership, were convicted of sales tax evasion and income tax evasion.

Their crimes were not accounting mistakes, Assistant Attorney General George Welch told Judge Robert Otte.

Otte agreed, sentencing Robert Androyna to two consecutive 18- to 36-month prison terms and his ex-wife to two one-year terms to be served simultaneously.

I REALLY hope he ends up as the boyfriend of a very well-endowed inmate.  He ripped me off the one and only time I ever dealt with him.

Yes, they both reported on January 12th.

Hope is at the Women's Center in York and will be eligible for parole in July: http://dcs-inmatesearch.ne.gov/Corrections/InmateDisplayServlet?DcsId=98752&showInmateImage=true

Rob is at the Diagnostic & Evaluation Center, probably waiting to be sent someplace else. He could be paroled as early as next July: http://dcs-inmatesearch.ne.gov/Corrections/InmateDisplayServlet?DcsId=81537&showInmateImage=true
