Gun Smuggler's Tale (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781540567499)

The tell-all tale of Clark Schroeder: fraudster, hacker, and smuggler. Clark gets the idea for his own gun store during a pheasant hunt when a fellow hunter brags about his gun being a knockoff manufactured by his brother-in-law. Dollar signs float in Clark's head as he realizes that he can make the knockoffs look real by hacking the ATF gun registry and putting in a record for the fake serial numbers. Then Clark gets an amphibious plane to fly the guns out of Mexico and unload them at the lake near Manhattan, KS where he can easily set up shop.From there, wacky things begin to happen in Clark's store. He is inspected by the KBI the first day he is open and one of the guns doesn't come up as a registered serial number. An employee steals from Clark and then tries to rob the store, twice. This attracts law enforcement to Clark's store. Even worse is that the ATF and FAA stick their nose in Clark's business. Can Clark even stay open a year before landing himself in jail?As the pressure gets to him, Clark is visited by some crazy individuals. He must keep his own sanity during some trying times. It is a good thing he has a budding romance that becomes a source of comfort and strength, but nightmares start coming. As Clark's freedom is jeopardized, his struggle within his own conscience comes to a head. What started as a quest for financial freedom turns into a quest for freedom from himself. Can Clark make it?
