    I came across this local (to Columbus IN) radio station interview of the proprietor of Phoenix Guns in Columbus. While Obummer's redefinition of who is in the gun business could drive profitable business to the FFLs, Mike Hatfield seems to put the interests of gun ownership ahead of business concerns. And he has a quotable line about ISIS and the the Second Amendment:

    I've made a couple purchases from them. They seemed to be pretty good folks then. Glad to see that they are for sure. I'm excited to give them more future business. Thanks for sharing this story.

    That is one of the best summaries I have heard from one of these interviews. The next time I am in Columbus I am going to spend some money at that store.

    Ask them what they did to their AR prices immediately after Newtown. I didn't listen to the tape(on a call)...must be honorable due to your responses...but I won't set foot in the place if I don't need to.

    I haven't had any interest in darkening their door for years... Since they used to be on 2nd Street. VERy small selection, prices comparable to Don's, acted like they were doing you a favor just unlocking the door to let you in (during business hours) and no interest in ordering anything they didn't already have. Went in two or three times and never again. Got a coworker that loves the place, was all excited about the deal he got on his new Glock a while back that was 50-75 high, but he knows the owner and he made him a "great deal"...

    I go to Bite the Bullet or Acme.
