First Black owned gun shop

[Newbzzz]

I just seen the headlines for this. Have they announed where it will be located?

 

[ultra...good]

What does it matter the color of skin or ethnicity of the owner? What did someone say about content of character vs color of skin? We have gone way too far from that, way too far,

Dude.

Apparently in the middle of a war-zone somewhere because he's afraid to reveal the location lol...

Any business owner with half a brain would be using all this free advertising from local news stories...

The story said they haven't finished installing security systems.
Shoot Point Blank's new store was burglarized before it opened in January so extra precautions are wise.
I'm sure media will do follow up stories upon actual opening.

Anyone else check out his Facebook page? Idk what anyone else thinks but I personally don’t think I would post a picture that shows my front door key contour......

also had some pictures of some gold spray painting they are doing on AK mags and some handguns. Little too pleb for me

10th Street is a Looooooong street. And a LOT of it is in not so nice areas at all. Dude lives out towards the east county line - perhaps the shop will be out that direction?

I absolutely positively wish him well. I'm also bummed that he considers Don Davis to be a role model.

Let's all hope and pray that the business is SECURE.

I get tired of all the labeling. Another guy opened a gun shop. That's great! Who cares what color he is.

Didn't there used to be a gun shop in the strip mall at 10th & Mitthoeffer, behind the Speedway station?

I have no idea. I rarely ever get out that direction - despite working relatively near.

Best of luck to this the young man. I hope he does good and stays in business for many years to come.

Was that an earlier / older location for Pop Guns? They've been just south of Washington and Post since at least 2001. Different name now, I believe.

Name changed to Indy Gun Bunker, and they're located across the street from the old Fish Furniture on East Washington, in with the military surplus shop.

Had a personal interaction with the esteemed Mr. Don Davis while I was on IPD. I can quote him exactly.........."I don't want no f.....ing cops in my store". We didn't know why then, but we do now.

I wish the new shop owner the best of luck despite his "mentoring" at the hands of a scumbag.

So no more indoor range, then, I presume?

Don died a rich man so yeah I can see why.

When they 1st opened there was talk about moving the range over, but I think that's fallen by the wayside at this point.

 

[gregr]

I have zero desire or intent to patronize any business due to the heritage of the owner. THAT is racism by definition.

That money ain’t helpin him in Hell though. He was one of the worst people ever to be associated with the gun business. I don’t recall the exact number but his shop was always near the top of the list for guns used in crimes. The local media always went to him for their interviews too and it was clear by his words that he was an asshat and was only selling guns to make money and could care less about the 2A.
