Just saw video of this on the morning news, but I couldn't find it to link.
First Motocross, Now His Shotgun: Jon Huntsman Shows a Moderate Can Be Macho
CONCORD, N.H.—Jon Huntsman, who has made much of the motorcycles he owns, bragged about his shotgun Saturday as he wooed gunowners in a state where the former Utah governor is counting on a breakout performance to vault him into the race for the GOP presidential nomination.
“I’ve been shooting guns since I was, I guess, 6, when I started with a BB gun, and then a .22 when I was 12, which I still have, by the way. And then I have a shotgun, a 12-gauge shotgun,” Huntsman told reporters outside Concord’s Everett Ice Arena, where more than 50 gun vendors were gathered for a show and sale.
No report on whether he asked if he could get him a huntin' license there.
Update: Underwhelmed by Huntsman - Good piece, especially in regards to asshat campaign consultants John Weaver and Mark McKinnon.
