10. This is a unique business situation. We are forced to limit “SHOPPING” time to just a few minutes. Know what you want or take our advice on what we have in stock. We have ammunition and we have guns – and more are coming in every day. But this situation is world-wide. So, supplies ARE limited and becoming increasingly hard to get. This is not the time to shop for the firearm you have been dreaming to get for years. It too late for that. To put it bluntly; please be happy you got an appointment and were able to purchase a tool for your security. We sorry for this situation and in time this will pass.

​

IMPORTANT! PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH!

The links below will ensure that you are PREPARED. We honestly haven’t the time to educate new customers or wait for others to gather their required documents and such. We are trying to help as many people as possible. If you are not prepared with what you need, we can NOT wait for you to go get it.  We will be forced to move on to the next customer and you will have to move to the end of the line.
