What Really Happens Inside a Gun Store

What Really Happens Inside a Gun Store

 These days there is a lot of talk about guns, gun stores and gun control. First off, as a firearms retailer, I would love to shed some light on what really takes place inside a gun store. Today gun stores have taken the place of barber shops and feed stores and other gathering places once found in America. When you walk into our store you are greeted and normally a conversation begins about a customers needs, wants, or desires. After the first few visits people tend to come back if nothing more than just to say "Hi" or "I love my new gun". The store tends to become a community hub where like-minded people gather just to talk and see the newest hardware to add to their collection. We do discuss politics at times but most people are more focused on whats right for them and helping them become better shooters. We have every type of person from every walk of life pass through our doors and they all leave becoming part of the gun culture. So for all the talk of gun control, ammo shortages, and doom and gloom, there has been one very bright spot - we have made many new friends.
