I was there today and found Reloading supplies. First time for everything. There was Bullets Primers powder and some equipment. Surprised me in a good way

To bad I was hopping they would get out of the gun, ammo business. Would love to see the mom and pop stores come back. They know what they are talking about when it comes to guns and ammo. JMO

Some mom and pop stores do, some become gathering spots for the cliches, or, buddies of the owner, no new comers allowed.

I've heard some terrible advice given in small shops.

I won't step foot in a wal-mart. I'd rather spend a little more at a small business.

I've lived in this community off and on for 69 years and never did a small business sell guns here. WalMart does. Before WalMart it was cheaper to drive 50-100 miles round trip than to buy at any local ma&pa store. There are multitudes of reason why ma&pa ain't there no more, the only thing I miss about them is havin a place to gossip and spit terbaccy juice.

I guess I do not like some big box store telling me what rifles or ammo I can have. JMO

Virginia still has mom and pop gun stores with reasonable prices. The one I go to , it's just me and the owner. I have not met the cliques yet. LOL.
