MA Gun Club Purchases $15,000 of Body Armor for Local Police

Weston Shooters Club of Weston, MA, announced that it has donated $15,000 to purchase body armor for the Framingham (MA) Police Department. With funds provided by Weston Shooters Club, Framingham PD was able to purchase 25 sets of ballistic vests, helmets, and related equipment for its officers. 

Through its relationship with Mark Haranas, president of MutualOne Bank of Framingham, Victor Grillo learned that the Framingham Police Department was seeking funds to purchase new body armor for its officers. Victor Grillo, owner of Weston Shooters Club, subsequently jumped at the opportunity to fund the purchase.
