Typical... Boost the rent before selling to show the new buyers that the property is a gold mine.....

Been there done that.  Bust the property owners in their scam.

Total BS because we all know the economy sucks and retail is going nowhere.
Political Correctness is FOS

Rather than start a new thread I feel this is appropriate here. I was down HK side  today FEB 11, 15 (Wednesday) so I figured that I'd go to WGS an this is what was on the door

WGS moved to Sand Island Road...Corner of  Sand Island Road and Auiki Street in Kalihi.
Gun control is a must...that is why I hold my gun with both hands when I shoot.

That's going to be confusing for people looking for "WINDWARD GUN SHOP!"   >:D

Update: every location Joe was hoping to get (Waimanalo, Kalama Vallet, etc) still has absolutely no tenants.

In fact, more spots opened up.

Glad to know that anti-gun sentiment is more important than making money....especially when people cry and complain about how they don't have money, so everyone else should give up some of theirs.

What's got me is that Joe moves out of HK and then there is an recent announcement of the soon to be OGC #2 wanting to hire for its future HK location, WTF?

I was in the area 12/17/15 and stopped by the new WGS, nice place Joe and Henry were there.

whynow?

 Larry's Auto parts used to be across from HK City Mill and closed due to high lease but is now opened in the building with the Satellite City hall in HK.   To me the lease in the Town Center would be comparable a few hundred yards away, but who knows, maybe that management only wants a certain business image , not auto parts and gun stores. 
 I hope OGC will open someplace in HK and have lots of parking.

I read that OGC is looking to open a 2nd store in HK, but they won't sell guns there, only accessories and stuff.  Maybe a restriction of the landlord/lease

Since Carter mentioned having the new store hours coincide with KHSC hours of operation, it looks like he picked HK to support/benefit from the traffic to and from the range.

If he has room, I think that would make a perfect location to give the Handgun Safety Training classes, making the hands-on portion at KHSC a heck of alot more convenient.

I think ammo sales and reloading supplies will be his strongest sales point. Carter already deals in bulk ammo sales through his first store. Being close to the range and being able to pick up a couple of boxes of ammo on the way in seems to be a common thing I hear a lot at the range. It turned to complaints during the ammo/powder/primer shortage a few years ago. Especially with .22 ammo. It seems to turn us all into hoarders.

I welcome another LGS in the HK area. But with the advent of the discounting now going on between some of the other LGS's I will be shopping them all for the best deals like I used to do prior to all the shortages and craziness.

Oh geez I forgot about that. I heard something about him being off island for a while. I don't remember how long though. Getting forgetful in my old age.
