Boy I would have walked away.
Guess I am blessed with the store I go to. Everyone is always talking about their guns. The guys from the gun store across the freeway stop in after work too (or did). As for a mild rookie, I was recommended the Perdomo 10th anniversary from the B&M, so I will pass that on to you. Still my favorite stick. |

Should have walked in and told the owner why you will never spend a dime in his store.
Guess I'm lucky, it's a very pro-gun crowd at my local cigar store.

His decision to piss off customers should be pointed out. I would recommend an extended middle finger. It has a nice nostalgic effect that I am sure he would appreciate. Thankfully, my place is very pro gun. |

My local shop has a sign that says "Guns Welcome on these Premises". They are alright.

The shop owner at my B&M loves the fact that she can assume I am armed, even if she doesn't see it....it's there somewhere.
She gets folks stopping in all the time looking for cigarettes, vapor and the like even though there is a 4 foot CIGAR sign and cigar posters all over the windows. A few have been less than cordial and one, I badged to get him out of the store. I think he was casing the place myself but turned fast when he saw me and it helped that an Erie PD car pulled in seconds later. Being on the main drag is a blessing and a curse. I don't care how bad I need an item, I see a NO GUNS ALLOWED sign, I turn and walk away....and I can legally enter all of them no matter what the sign says!!!...I still will not go in. I have even gone as far as to not let the wife "leave me in the car" to shop any way...we go elsewhere. Echo |

Yup, my local B&M is pretty pro-gun too. Definitely tell the shop owner why he won't see any of your hard-earned
money in his register. |

I guess I should consider myself lucky.
My B&M had 2 employee's that carried one being a retired ADA and the other a Retired SCPO. |

While I didn't go in the shop I did post a "REVIEW" on yelp... and will probably do YP and any other "REVIEW" sight I can find...
 He doesn't have twitter or facebook... otherwise I would have hooked him up on there too.... |

La Flor Deminicona (LFD) Camoroon, My Father Serie JJ, Oliva G, Herrera Esteli, My Father Flor de Las Antillas, Tatuaje Tattoo.
Thats all I can think of off the top of my head, they're all medium/ medium-full. I didn't put anything that would put my S/O on her ass after smoking. |
