NEWPORT, NH — How did Senator Marco Rubio spend Christmas Eve?
Buying a gun in Florida, his campaign said.
Mr. Rubio on Friday told employees of Sturm, Ruger & Co., a gun manufacturing company here, that he sought to buy a weapon on Dec. 24 and found that the store he went to “was packed” with young and old customers, some of them, he said, worried that President Obama would further restrict their right to purchase guns. He did not say whether the gun was meant as a gift or where the store was.
