| Does anyone know if this is open to the public? I used to have a friend who bought his fishing supplies there but he moved away. Thanks |

| Quote: | | In her petition, appellant alleged that she was employed by Del Mar during the summer of 1987. As a part of her duties, she was required to prepare shipping documents for goods being sent from Del Mar's warehouse located in Corpus Christi, Texas to other cities in Texas. One day, Del Mar instructed appellant to package a semi-automatic weapon (for delivery to a grocery store in Brownsville, Texas) and to label the contents of the package as "fishing gear." Ultimately, the package was to be given to United Parcel Service for shipping. Appellant was required to sign her name to the shipping documents; therefore, she was concerned that her actions might be in violation of some firearm regulation or a regulation of the United Postal Service. Accordingly, she sought the advice of the United States Treasury Department Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms (hereinafter referred to as "the Bureau"). A few days after she contacted the Bureau, appellant was fired. Appellant brought suit for wrongful termination alleging that her employment was terminated solely in retaliation for contacting the Bureau. |

Not really sure what your motive is in bringing up 27 yr. old news but they are good folks over there. _________________ "If we don't leave any, there won't be any."

| This was just to ask about buying fishing gear at a discount. Like I said, my buddy used to buy his there but he used to have a catalogue and I would give him the money to buy it for me since he lived nearby that place. He's since moved out of the country and remember they had some good prices on gear. |

All right,Tyler! Even through all the legalize this deal sounds like "slip and fall" lawyer meets disgruntled ex-employee and they stayed way too long after happy hour but the real story oughtta be a hoot. Ask them if anyone remembers.  |
