How about lying to the gun store to get your uncle the police discount?

How about lying to the gun store to get your uncle the police discount?

That was the root of the problem.

If the actual buyer were actually a cop, he could buy his own gun with the discount.

Or, if the actual buyer did not want to defraud the gun store for a police discount, he could pay retail like a normal person.

But he wanted a benefit to which he was not entitled and his nephew was willing to lie to help him get it.
