LATEST NEWS AND UPDATES

 

Visit here daily for the latest news and updates.



Instead of trying to post daily on Facebook, Instagram, Reddit, or Twitter I will be posting updates here more often. Why? Due to the fact that either Facebook or other platforms are flagging firearm and ammo related posts, possible competitors reporting our posts, or anti gun individuals or groups reporting our posts and causing us to be put in "Facebook Jail" for several days or a month. This blocks us from posting or restrics our post for the duration of the jail (restricted) time. This happens even though we have proof we are a license firearms dealer. Eventually the page will be removed from the platform if there are too many violations. They ignore the fact that most illegal activity happens in privates groups and messenger. Another issue is even though we have thousands of followers on Facebook only a few hundred actually see our posts in their news feed. Facebook, Instagram and others limit post from pages like ours. The only way for those 1000's of followers to see our posts would be to go to our Facebook page daily. Well since this is the case and appears as though there is no hope of any changes in the future we decided to use this method instead.

What will be posted here?
Updates on shipments, changes in hours (Google is the best place to look), price changes, policy changes, gun related news, or anything else that the owner feels is important. All without social media limiting our free speech.

Lots of great items on gun broker.

Shipments arriving Monday.

Yesterday (Saturday) was crazy busy. It seams like everyone showed up around 10:00 and later. I can only help one or two people at a time. It can take 30 miutes per transaction up to 45 minutes. I can really only handle 6 or 7 transaction from 8am-noon. I have a 4 person limit in the shop and I had six in there at one time. A seventh came in and I said that there is starting to be too many people in here and he got mad and left and left be bad feedback. I do have a large sign outside that states there is a FOUR person limit. I turn a light on outside when I feel I cannot have anymore inside.  If you drew a 3 foot round circle and you stepped inside that circle I could only fit 5 people in here. 3 feet is not that much when you are inside it. I guess he didn't read the sign. It makes no sense to pack in the shop like sardines. If there are 3 or 4 people ahead of you do the math it could take 90 miutes to 2 hours to get to you if they are all buying firearms. If you show up at 10:30 and I close at Noon why make it more crowded. Four people in this small shop is a good number. Please wait outside. I do close at noon on Saturday's if I have enough customers to carry me through to noon or a little after I may close early. Some may not like this. I have had things stolen and I don't need a gun walking out the door because there are just too many people to keep track of. I work in this shop like I am now over the weekend. I would like to get out at noon so I can have a little spare time on the weekend to see my family and noon spend it in here there rest of the day Saturday and Sunday. Please show up early on Saturday I open at 8am and it seams like everyone shows up at 10 or 10:30. With about half hour (maybe less maybe more if their background check takes 20-25min) per transaction that is not enough time to help everyone that shows up between 10:00 - 11:30. I cannot change my hours so I open later. I understand some are there to look but you cannot really look when there is four people already in the shop. Some are in for a quick thing such as ammo that can take priority so I can get you right out. Just let me know.
