I recently saw a comment on here about a guy name Jake from back east that use to post on here getting murdered, is this true? Same comment said he did excellent work and was a good guy, not trying to promote or shame anyone on this. I would like to know the truth and why, if he was murder, who did it and why Thanks in advance: Cab

There was Jake that ran a race car fab shop in the Kansas City area that was murdered a few years ago. He was not a Mopar guy though, he was a Drag Week guy with a 7 Second Malibu.

Yes that was him. Never met him but he was very well liked, he met a guy to sell a Gun and the guy turned around and shot him right in front of his 10 year old Daughter.

What a shame but selling a gun to a stranger in a parking lot. What could go wrong?

What a shame but selling a gun to a stranger in a parking lot. What could go wrong? Similar thing happened here in Nashville a couple years ago. I am sure it happens a lot more than people hear about. Very very sad.

I am always amazed that people on CL or Facebook marketplace for sale for $3,$5,$10 ..etc and openly invite strangers to stop by their home to pickup junk .. seems like a a lot of risk, no reward

Three days ago after a guy e mailing me twice on a CL item I had up for 3 months drive 3 hours to meet me and I drove an hour. A $1500 deal. We met at a business that on a main hwy and I know they have cameras and I parked in that area.
It was flawless.
I also do not like people coming to my home or if they do I have the parts outside at the best point in my driveway for easy pickup and no fuss.
Ive never had an issue and some ive seen they are open carrying, but hey, mines in my pocket.
But most the time I feel if its old car parts related and even further a fellew mopar guy ive little to worry about.
My biggest fear is getting drawn away from my home, shop because someone could do alot if they had a hour lead time where I was away.
In this situation I think it was semi foolish to do a gun deal in the way it was done, if it were me it would have to be at the local PD or have a officer present and all the proper paperwork done or no sale. Im pretty non conformist but when it comes to weapons I got to go by the current laws on the books as it covers me and all others butts.
STOP POTATO HATE!

I do all my deals at the local CHP office If they don't agree then the deal is off.
