George Zimmerman visits Kel-Tec factory
Legal Insurrection ^ | 8-23-2013 | William A. Jacobson

Maybe to thank them for building the gun that allowed him to lawfully defend himself against a brutal beating which put him in reasonable fear of death or great bodily harm?

Maybe, as is speculated, to check out tactical shotguns?

Maybe just because he is a private citizen who never has been convicted of anything, and is allowed to do it?

Maybe to show that he’s not intimidated by the mobs calling for harm to become of him?

Maybe to troll those following him around and watch his every move, like TMZ, which broke the story:

George Zimmerman was on the hunt today — for a shotgun … TMZ has learned.

Zimmerman went to Kel-Tec in Cocoa, Florida … a gun manufacturing company. We’re told he was asking questions about the legality of buying a shotgun — specifically, the Kel-Tec KSG.

The gun in question is a tactical shotgun, often used for home defense. It holds 12 rounds of 12 gauge shells.George Zimmerman was on the hunt today — for a shotgun … TMZ has learned.

Maybe all of the above?

“Legality” of buying one? Is he over 21 with no felony convictions?

Maybe he was there to collect his ‘Saleman of the Year’ award?

That's all George needs is a novelty shotgun.

A Mossberg 500 Mariner is what he should get.

You and I agree on that. But last night I got flamed by all the know-it-all, swinging d!!!s who believe if you “ain’t got a hand howitzer with a gazzillion rounds, you don’t know doodly and you ain’t ready for ‘the fight!’”

Little boyz in their tighty whiteez, living in their momma’s basement, reading all those GUNZ magazines.

Rambo heroes all. You know the type.

Us old guys know the story. Mossberg 500, best defensive weapon after a Winchester trench gun. The kind I carried over 40 years ago.

Yep - old reliable. Well-made, reliable, and inexpensive. Gets the job done if the job needs to be done.

If Kel-Tec had a brain they would present Zimmerman with another pistol, making sure all the paper work is in order. Great advertising.

Read the title as “k-tel” and was wondering why George Zimmerman would need a “Greatest Hits of 1975” record album.

(I guess I’m dating my self here.)

good one with the K-tel bit. I was a little pissed off when I heard this on the radio yesterday and that was fox news. The way I took it from the way they announced it was:

"EMERGENY!!!! AMBER ALERT!!!! CODE RED!!!! THE BRITISH ARE COMING!!!! GEORGE ZIMMERMAN VISITS KEL-TECH TO SHOP FOR A 12GAUGE SHOTGUN TO GO ON A KILLING SPREE!!!! EVERYONE BE ON FULL ALERT AND YOU ARE AUTHORIZED TO SHOOT ON SITE!!!! REWARD!!!!!"

That's how it came across and it is shameful it was portrayed as such on foxnews.
