Well, we pulled the trigger!

As of today, our new gun shop is now in progress!!!!

We signed LOI with a lease company for 1300 sq feet in a brand new building, on a major throughfare and freeway. We would see approximately 90K cars a day drive by our place.

We submit our FFL and docs next week, and are setting up a meet and greet with the Chief of Police to make sure he knows us, and that we have everything he wants in place to feel comfy about it. Luckily he is a staunch gun rights guy and Republican. I spent some time at the local CHP office talking with an officer about it as well, and he was stoked.

Company name will be.... (drum roll)

Elite Arms and Supply or better known as E.A.S.Y Company!

We are super stoked, very looking forward to this new adventure. We expect to be open by September or so, pending all the legal hoops and joys.

We were playing around with logos and sort of came up with this. Super rough draft so cut me some slack on my crappy photo skills!

Congrats! Starting fresh is not easy and most people would fold before it even got running. Can't wait to see what you do with this!
