Midway USA Rumor
There are numerous reports of this email today:
Quote:
We have been holding some products for you, waiting for other items to arrive so we could ship your order complete. However, we believe an Executive Order could be released any day prohibiting the sale of certain products such as high-capacity magazines and AR-15 parts and accessories. Therefore we have done a partial release of your backorders to ensure that any of these items and other items we had in inventory waiting to ship complete are all on their way, in case such an Order is forthcoming. You will receive a shipping notification shortly. Other items on backorder, that we have not yet received, are not affected by this partial release.
We appreciate your understanding and your business. We always put Customer Satisfaction first and believe this action is in the very best interest of our Customers.
Sincerely,
MidwayUSA Customer Service

Obama just said at his news conference today (I am paraphrasing as I just heard it and didn’t read it), “those lining up and purchasing guns are opposed to common sense and ginning up fear for the federal government is coming to take your guns.” Also “It is a fear that is fanned by those that oppose any types of legislation. “
His EO will be out by the end of this week!

Some are way too late to the game & in lines with no product. Then again, some are lining up early for the inauguration.

President Obama said he'd take "executive action" to deal with guns at his press conference today
"My understanding is the vice president's going to provide a range of steps that we can take to reduce gun violence," said Obama. "Some of them will require legislation, some of them I can accomplish through executive action. And so I will be reviewing those today, and as I said, I will speak in more detail to what we're going to go ahead and propose later in the week. But I'm confident that there are some steps that we can take that don't require legislation and that are within my authority as president, and where you get a step that, has the opportunity to reduce the possibility of gun violence, then i want to go ahead and take it."

I read that as they are trying to ship ahead of any possible ban.....
But that begs the question, can such an EO be enforced?

So tell me again how Executive Orders are more enforceable than Laws?
White House to miss budget deadline; Breaks law...
