It's Your State, Not Mine.

       Announcing you are from Illinois and cannot buy the handguns your are asking to see will not get you a lot of a Firearms Associate's time.

       Just so you know.

True Falsehoods

       "We're up to our necks in @$$holes!" was physiologically false, but, oh so true.

Reasons

       A young single mother came into Ye Olde Gonne Shoppe today. She was badly frightened and feeling helpless after nearly being the victim of a violent random assault last night. Spent a lot of time with her. She left knowing full well that she's only taken the first steps toward self-reliant safety.

       However, she knew those first steps had been taken.

       Her head was high, and her stride was long. 

        Because: Reasons.

01/13/17: Ice Road Idiots

     In a once in a decade sleet/ freezing rain/ ice storm only idiots will be out. Those idiots will be in a gun store.

Full Service Gonne Shoppe

     Just one of the many services provided by Ye Olde Gonne Shoppe: We will safely destroy any shootable ammunition brought to us. In fact, our dedicated employees are currently planning an ammunition destruction event. 
    
     It is not known if pumpkins and/or Tannerite will be involved.

Smart Feller

     Crop dusting the Firearms Associate while he's getting a holster from the lower pegs is not considered good form.

01/01/2017: Open Season

     The Far Side of the Gun Counter: "Attention valued customers of Ye Olde Gonne Shoppe, it is now 8:20. The store has been closed since 8. Please take your selections to the registers at the front of the store. Open season will commence at 8:30. Happy New Year."

     They made it out with a couple of minutes to spare.

     Dammit.   ;^)'
