Dealership offers free gun with purchase of a car

[jeffrey]

A car dealership in the United States is offering a free handgun with every vehicle sold.

Max Motors in Butler, Missouri, says sales have quadrupled since the start of the offer.

Customers can choose between a gun or a $250 (£125) gas card, but most so far have chosen the gun.

Owner Mark Muller said: "We're just damn glad to live in a free country where you can have a gun if you want to."

Well that's kind of like Michael Moore's Farenheight 911.....he went to that bank to open an account and they gave him a gun for opening it.

WOW! When I saw the headlines, I guessed Texas but it turns out that I was wrong.

I realize that's more of a regional thing, but as a pro-gun guy, I'd still take the gas card.

Besides, why would anyone want a Kel Tec .380? (The pistol shown in the article is not a Kel Tec.)

"Shotgun!" Oh, wait... "Handgun!"

Doesn't have the same effect.

Hey, with a gun in hand, those yokels have a fighting chance against the repo man when he comes to relieve them of their new vehicles.

I saw that ad in my local paper and didnt think anything other than o boy I wonder what rebates you forfeit for that.

That sounds so wrong but if it helps the business I guess there aren't any boundaries
