Missouri car dealer offers free AK-47 with purchase of new truck.
Mark Muller, the president of Max Motors in Missouri, is offering a gift certificate for a Kalashnikov AK-47 rifle to anyone who purchases a pick-up truck. Muller, whose business slogan is “God, Guns, Guts, and American Pick-Up Trucks,” said the response to the offer has been very strong. “There is a lot of worry about crime, we have a methamphetamine problem around here and people just want to protect themselves,” said Muller. The UK Telegraph notes that there may be other dynamics at play:
Never before, however, has the AK-47 been used to sell cars in Missouri. For all its gimmickry, the interest in Mr Muller’s newest promotion reflects rising concern among gun owners that President Barack Obama will eventually seek to tighten the rules on ownership, despite his promises to the contrary.
The funniest thing about progressives is that they tend to feel before they speak, rather than think before they speak. First off, I agree that the AK-47 is probably a poor choice of weapon for this promotion because of its Soviet Union roots. But you so-called progressives should know, since it was your sponsored laws that got the AK-47 banned in the United States, that all semi-automatic weapons (AK-47 included) cannot be imported from a foreign country. The AK-47 being offered is an American made version of the gun. But you progressives keep speaking and letting us redneck conservatives know just how much smarter than us you really are.
