Boston's Gun Bible apparently on the DHS blacklist
http://www.fundamentalsoffreedom.com/fswforum/index.php?topic=7512.0
I have spoken face-to-face with one of the bookstore's customers who
had a recent conversation with the owner. This customer confirmed that
the owner told him that her business was threatened by an agent of DHS
with being "redflagged" if they carried Boston's Gun Bible.
(According to him, his co-worker had previously been told the same thing.)
This was all told to me in the presence of his wife.
I could discern no reason for falsehood, and would rate him as highly credible.
What's possible (and even likely) is that a single agent operated
outside of policy, on his own initiative and personal feelings. This was
the case with certain ATF agents and Unintended Consequences.
John Ross personally described the matter to me.
However, if anyone believes that the DHS is incapable of acting against a book
they found objectionable needs to reset his calender by a decade or two.
Even before I was informed of this, sales of Boston's Gun Bible
were at record highs -- especially after the disastrous election.
I've never lied to sell books, and have no reason to start now.
If the price of Boston's Gun Bible seems high, go get a quote on
the unit cost of printing such an 848 page book, and then include a
standard publisher's markup. It used to retail for $28, a price I kept
from 2002 to 2008, but couldn't any longer with the debasing dollar.
I.e., take it up with the Federal Reserve.
Currently, the best deal on Boston's Gun Bible is from
Fred's M14 stocks for $20 (+ s&h). I think he has only the 2007 or 2008
printing. (The 2009 printing includes my remarks on the Heller ruling.)

That's true. Here's my take, subsequent to my original mention:It might well be true that this guy heard about this, but that certainly doesn't mean the supposed underlying incident actually happened.
