Kind of like the oxymoron liberal gun owner.Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pjd832 146 Posted July 9, 2018 Yup I was there ONCE because a coworker and I were passing by saw the shop and stopped in as we do whenever we see a gun store in our travels....30 seconds in the door while looking at the $650 gen 3 glocks heard a person behind the counter calling a customer a “gun nut and a cowboy” because he wanted the right to carry to come to jersey and that “no one needs to carry except military/le”.... to which I chimed in and asked which category was he as he had a poorly concealed pistol and it’s odd to work in a gun store with that attitude .....he said “I’m neither I’m bob viden and I own this shop and you must be one of those nut jobs too”.... I basically laughed and said to the other customer “now that you know that he feels as though his and his families life is worth more than yours And he’s fine with taking your money yet doesn’t want you to have the same rights as he does I’d take my money elsewhere” then bob goes on to brag about “being on the nra board of directors (this was probably 5 yrs ago) and a firm supporter of the second amendment..blahh blahh like all the other gun grabbing politicians...and that Sweeney was a good friend of his and a big 2a guy “ ....I laughed said “must be why nra abandoned nj .....there was more said but that’s the highlights .... I left and never/will never go back Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnnyB 4,289 Posted July 9, 2018 Bob, the owner has made it very clear and does not hide the fact that he is against concealed carry in NJ as we are too densely populated and it would turn NJ into the wild West! He has a CCW for himself though! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maintenanceguy 508 Posted July 9, 2018 I have no idea if Bob is for or against carry. I think the anti-Bob Viden sentiment started during the impeach Sweeney event. Some organizers from the event stopped into the shop to ask the shop to pass out fliers or something like that. The shop was not interested in helping organize and even expressed that they thought the idea wan't a good one. To some, that made Bob the enemy of the second amendment. I'm in the area. I'm pretty in touch with lots of gun owners around, and this thread is the first I've heard that he's anti carry. He may be, but it's not something I've heard others talk about.

JohnnyB 4,289 Posted July 9, 2018 Feel free to ask Bob the next time you are in his shop. He will tell you himself. Bob is friends with Sweeney. That is why he would not go against him! Bob is on the same level as Dicks Sporting Goods in my book. Neither will never get another cent of my money! @Shawnmoore81 can you chime in here and verify what I am saying? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he's the same Bob Viden that spoke at a Trenton rally a few months back, he even mentioned concealed carry in his speech, saying something like "...not for everyone of course, just for police and former military" - no, I don't have his exact words, but that was the overall gist... and frankly, my jaw dropped. Yeah, he is def'ly not for "normal folks" carrying concealed. I thought his viewpoint was loud and clear... and I thought he should never speak at a "pro-2A" rally again. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnnyB 4,289 Posted July 9, 2018 Yep, I was there as you know. I could not believe they let him speak either! I never heard what he said up there as I was screaming at the top of my lungs at him in disbelief! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bob was also quite rambling, and, sadly, a bit past his prime. I would save him the embarassment of repeating his performance. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
