Pawn Star arrested for gun and drug charges

[winters]

i remember that episode. who knows who really owned that AR.

I know that whole show is highly scripted but he isn't that good of an actor to play stupid. And the drug charges...like that is any suprise.

I am assuming that his place of employment is an FFL since they are a pawn shop. I am thinking that ATF might have something to say about his continued employment if he is convicted of the charges as felonies.....

I know in the show they talk about only buying pre-1899 guns.
Does this still mean they are an FFL if they only buy/sell guns made prior to 1899?

I often watch this show because they have a lot of antique guns that they buy. And no, they don't have an FFL. Many times I've seen the head guy say he can't buy guns made after 1899 since they don't have an FFL, and turn away potential gun sellers because of that.

Is anyone really surprised?

Not trying to be snarky, but yeah, I was surprised when my wife read me the story earlier this morning. Not that I think he's a little angel or anything, but I was unaware of that side of him.

There are a few videos on YouTube where his gangster looking posse stomp a couple guys. I don't recall him throwing any punches but his boys sure had fun. I think one was a guy asking to ride in his pimped out car and another was asking for pictures or something and got too close.

Bottom line, I'm not surprised. He looks and acts like a punk and definitely is no angel. Just as Dean Wormer said, "fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go along in life."

I saw an episode where they had a shoot off at the range. Chum was using an AR. I wonder if it was his or the shops.

Not the shops, they don't have an FFL.

Well it looks like Ricks got his back.

I wouldn't be surprised if they investigate Cory too. Birds of a feather flock together. Not good for Pawn Stars.
That's ashame, fame, fortune & then jail.

Chumlee's girlfriend. Apparently not the source of the sexual assault investigation which is what led to the search warrant.

I don't believe they are an FFL. I didn't see a single firearm for sale in their shop when I visited on my most recent Vegas trip.

The quoted section came out weird because I'm not the one who posted that. But they are not an FFL and only deal in pre-1899 firearms. As far as them not being out on display, I think they may have another showroom with a lot of larger or higher end goods that you have to request to visit. They also try to sell many items at auction, as well, I was just there in late January and while they did have a lot of interesting items, art, coins, and scrip in particular but otherwise I was fairly underwhelmed.

19 drug possession charges ??? Wow! How could he accumulate that many charges? Not being familiar with stuff like that, was he dealing drugs out of his house, or what?

Probably not. More likely that he got caught with prescription drugs that were not his. They'll go with one count for each pill in the bottle.
