Rusk County gun store owner targeting DOJ program after bank account issue

HAWKINS - A Rusk County man believes the U.S Department of Justice (DOJ) stepped on his constitutional rights. It's the reason the gun store owner is advocating against a DOJ program called Operation Choke Point that he thinks pressured his credit union, and others around the country, to stop doing business with gun stores.

Mike Schuetz runs Hawkins Guns in Rusk County. He also does private investigator work and was a former parole agent. Schuetz sells guns at his store and online because he believed there was demand in the area after a different store in the area closed.

"I think this area needed a gun store," Schuetz said.
