In addition to fair pricing, location, and great customer service, what qualities of a gun and sporting shop our 2A community is looking for? Or what do you appreciate most about our lgs?
Personally, I can think of the super nice shopkeepers who seem so happy to see me, those who are matter-of-fact and direct to the point when asked, and maybe one who I feel is always upset about something. All are great. I somehow feel a bit of closeness to them for over the years that I’ve dealt with them and appreciation for the fact that they’re here faithfully serving the community. If there’s anything that I may be looking for would be a gun shop and shooting range near my town in Wahiawa/Mililani/Haleiwa. Fair pricing yes and it’s relative.
A friend of mine in LV is currently in the process of setting up a gun shop with a shooting range. We had several conversation over the past 6-8 months about how (un)profitable it is to run the business. For the average lgs, it may pay the rent, salaries and your medical, but it is more of a public-service and the love for the sport rather than make-it-big.
Do we have an appreciation day for our lgs already on going? LGS annual appreciation day?
