Local law enforcement took calls from the media after the promotion was announced, but found nothing wrong with what the dealership is doing.
"They're not doing anything illegal," said Lt. Randy Beshore of the Butler Police Department. "I think the misconception is that people thought they got the handgun right there at the dealership."
Even so, the dealership has received threatening phone calls.
"Someone who said they were with the ATF called and said 'You need to shut down this promotion right now or we're shutting you down.' I told them to bring their attorneys, I don't know if [the call] was real or fake," Muller said.

Tis enough to turn a statue into a misanthrope!

Well, if someone decides later that the dealer gave them a bad deal on the car, at least they'll have a semi-automatic on hand to take back to the dealership and express their dissatisfaction.
