Bob, I though the way the permit thing worked in places like the People's Republic of VA Beach was that only local residents needed the permit? Otherwise how could anybody well a pistol at the gun show at the Pavilion?
Also, if I drop by I'll be sure to announce in a loud voice that "I'm lookin' fer that Bob Locker feller that promised 40% discounts to Internet customers."
Seriously, if you have a good selection, good service, good prices, and convenient location, I don't see how you can go wrong. You are competing against morons as far as I can tell. A sales droid at one of your competitors once suggested that I trim down 10mm brass to make .40S&W brass (this was back when the .40 first came out). Minor detail; the 10mm brass has a much thicker web and thus different case volume, therefore using standard .40 loads would have blown the gun. Duh!
smitty21, if you're talking about Bob's G&T down on Granby, I wouldn't be surprised. They wanted $60 to install a NY trigger spring in a Glock. $2 part, 3 minutes of labor for an amateur like me. Just the thing to build customer relations.
p.s. Bob, do y'all have a range and rental guns? I've got an itch for the Kahr P9 but want to test-drive first...
