GunSmoke in deep shit.

Guess all those cash deals, and trading silver caught up with them.

Update: We've been following a series of surprising incidents involving Gunsmoke Guns, a Wheat Ridge store that served as the setting of American Guns, a reality TV series that was recently canceled by the Discovery Channel; see our previous coverage below.
First, there was a robbery. Then, there was an IRS raid, which some Second Amendment boosters saw as politically motivated. Now, the search warrant affidavit has been unsealed (see it here), and it reveals that the inquiry into the business activities of the Wyatt family, who run Gunsmoke, has been underway for years.

Craziness

The section of the affidavit devoted to evidence states that in or around June 2010, an agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives was given information suggesting that Rich Wyatt, family patriarch and manager of Gunsmoke, "unlawfully possessed six...fully automatic weapons" in violation of U.S. law.

Shortly thereafter, agents discovered that while the Wyatts -- including wife Renee and kids Kurt and Paige -- have long been thought to own Gunsmoke, a certain Victor Rodriguez is actually the man with his name on the paperwork.

These are the same guys who would engrave their logo into every gun that came into the shop for smithing, without the owner's permission, then substituted substandard used parts for customer provided high performance parts. They also were known for making customers pay for a gun before running the BGC, and if it came back "denied" they also denied a refund and kept the gun.

10-1 says Wyatt burgled his own store too. It would not seem out of character, given past business practices.

This allegation caused agents to look more closely into the shop's records, figuratively transforming these weapons into smoking guns.

He is in deep shit and well deserved. Have fun in the pokey.

The highest paid person was $13k in 2007 ?? I don't understand how anyone who has a show that goes on Discovery and flies around in Helicopters can try and lie on taxes. IRS knows you have money...helicopter gives it away
