The Shield in .40 S&W is for sale. We want to hold on to the one in 9mm a bit so that people have a chance to come in and handle a Shield/check it out, as it's tough to even be able to do that right now due to the speed at which they're sold.
Pretty much the same thing with the PMR-30 and the KSG (those are the only other two not for sale yet). Would like to give people the opportunity to come in and hold one in their hands.

We think we'll probably have a lottery for the chance to buy the 9mm Shield at our grand opening in December. We'll be doing some sort of in-store auction for the PMR-30/KSG during our grand opening so that they go to local folks. If you are interested in any of these items, come into the store and we'll take down your name and contact info. We're also supposed to be getting a SUB-2000 in a few weeks so that might be up for grabs in December as well. I'll be posting info as we figure out exact dates for the Grand Opening.

I really appreciate you guys doing this. For the first time in months I've been able to handle the XDs and the Shield in the same place. Appreciate the experience to really be able to look them over and not feel rushed to make a decision.

Truly enjoyable shopping experience at your store. I felt like a regular even though I'd never met any of you in person. Great atmosphere, great service, and even if you're not officially open yet I found everything I needed today (except the 938, but that's okay :)

I'll be back on a regular basis!

The reaction to the store has been awesome - Seems like everyone who comes in leaves and tells someone else who then come into the store. Thank you so much for the kind words and the word of mouth that had guns flying out the door today. :D

My wife and I stopped in tonight on our way to dinner. Mike and all the staff were great!

My wife commented that it is the first gun store we have gone to where she was treated as the buyer rather than me.

I have to make sure to leave my credit card in the car because there is too much fun stuff to buy. I was impressed at the selection of holsters and ammo especially.

My wife hates coming to gun stores with me. It is as if she isn't there. More often than not, if I want to buy any items, you need to convince my wife and not me.....I am already sold on buying guns ;)

Was in the shop today. As mentioned above products were set at a good price point, the layout was designed well, staff friendly and who doesn't love a shop dog who greets you at the door then suspciously follows you around?

In fact I was surprised at some of the low prices for accessories. Picked up a PMAG for $12.

I can see myself becoming regular customer and look forward to seeing their shop fully stocked.

Was in the place this afternoon and loved it. They have a great spot with nice staff and very reasonable prices. I do have one problem... my daughter (2 1/2 years) is scared to death of that dog! They were very accomidating and put it in back after she freaked out. Gonna have to work with my daughter on that one because I WILL be back for sure!

I already wear tight shirts (only to show how well you can hide a mid-size .45) Not sure I could pull off the muscle T and still have people take me serious as a gun guy. LOL

I stopped in yesterday and got the other 9 black PMags they had in stock and a green one to make an even 10 ;) . Nice place- desperately in need of a meaningful (large/huge/whatever) selection of used guns. And more Pmags..
