I shop at Cabelas occasionally, they have a terrific powder, primer, and bullet inventory. It's a good retailer with an inventory that is diminishing elsewhere locally. I've stood by their used gun racks and shouldered and swung every Model 12 in the rack without the intervention of a salesman. There is nothing that feels as good on my shoulder as the right Model 12, except of course, my wife's head.
I consider that freedom a gentleman's agreement, and now this a**hole will probably muck that up. 
I'll say this for him, he knows his firearms. Noveske rifles are as good as anyone's best. Very accurate shooters. Great barrels.
All present day laws and rules and locks are only for honest men. This greedy fool just stole from all of us.
 John Noveske's been dead for several years now, but he would have known how to handle this creep.
