The pro-gun group Gun Owners of Maine is preparing to fight the state’s newly implemented three-day waiting period in court, but that fight is going to take money.

Back in April, anti-gun lawmakers in the Pine Tree State passed a measure requiring a 72-hour waiting period for gun purchasers before they can be transferred a gun they have purchased, even after passing the FBI’s federal background check. Passage took a barrage of procedural games, and then Gov. Janet Mills didn’t act upon the legislation, cowardly letting it become law without her signature.

Consideration of the law by the state legislature forced one major Maine employer to announce it would take its business to a different, more gun-friendly state if the measure was passed. Kittery Trading Post, the gun seller and outdoor sports retailer located by Interstate 95 in southern Maine, said it would move its firearms business across the border to New Hampshire if the waiting period took effect.

The 86-year-old business stated in a letter that the law would have “irreversible consequences” on its third-generation, family-owned gun and outdoor sports company.
