Is this a good thing?

Heck yes this is a good thing, do you remember "Cheers"? when you go in there youre trying to remind yourself that you've never actually met these people before, but reminding yourself dosen't work and you go back to being instantly thier best friend again. Mickey(owner) is a very rich man, and rightfully so, he treats people like he wants to be treated, has an amazing sense of humor and above all, his shop is his retirement hobby, hes not there to make a billion dollars on one box of ammo, hes there to have fun and he makes double sure that all of his cutomers do the same. The banner on the front of his store says team glock, and they have a bunch of glocks in stock, but they all bow before the awesomeness of the kimber too, so 1911 guys are right at home there. You'll never get a "corporate" feeling there, and he has an awesome collection of some really big guns on display and dont miss the painball tanks he keeps in the parking lot

I dont want to be accused of posting a shamless plug, but I have had comperable experiences in many gun shops in my area(northeast dallas/I-30), B&S guns in Garland is HORRIBLE! 20rd box of Wolff .45ACP hardball for $55 +tax anyone? Customer service sucks, just a bad shop. Target master in garland off of Jupiter road, the sales women are nice, the guys there have a certain machismo to them, prices are absurd, and dont mention range fees, ASTRONOMICAL! I have found only one safe haven in my neck of the woods... Ammo Depot in Caddo Mills, its like the "Cheers" of gunstores, the small shop is always packed, ammo is resonably priced and plentiful(especially 5.56-.223), all of the people who work there are insanley friendly and helpful and I will never go anywhere else for my gun needs except for my reloading equipment I plan to buy, but I will buy all my supplies there, and if Mickey don't have it, I'm sure he will order it for me!

"Wife asked me(about the AR-15), "What the hell do you need that for?" The only response I could come up with was "It's for when the zombies come baby" and thats all it took!
