Don't know, Forney is a long ways away. 
If I dont get called for overtime I'd love to drop by. But triple time is had to pass up. On 19 it shows. So I take it this is between 20 and the downtown 4 way? And the burgers at Dairy Mart is the bomb. Yes, on the right. About 1/2 mile south of I-20. TRG |

I shall be there
Any reccomendations for hotels in canton? Looks like I'll likely be staying in mesquite and driving due to the significantly cheaper hotels. Are we planning on doing breakfast or anything on either of the mornings I'll likely be flying solo and want to meet a few arfcommers I've yet to meet before. |

Canton is ~80 miles for me, and I don't think I've been there this century. Might have to drive down. |

Ed, any plans for a table at the Gun Shows in Tyler any time? Hey Dan- no plans for gun shows at this time... originally we were going to do the show circuit, but there's just too much of the same stuff everywhere there. We'd be just another table at another gun show. Besides, we're selling to a number of local dealers who sell at the shows, so we're respecting their "space." We also wanted to make sure whatever we did had at least a little bit of a coolness factor to it, as it is an opportunity for us to showcase products vs. just sell more stocks and grips... We wanted it to be more of a destination than a general store, with stuff going on each month: here we can demo night vision, hold classes, and have a place for folks to hang out if we want. Lastly, we're big on not wasting energy, and setting up and tearing down for shows is a lot of work! |

These will be at store first, then they'll make their way to the online store... in fact we won't even see first prototypes until the opening of the store next week. Waiting to see quality, determine final details, etc. before we get final pricing, but I'm guessing they're going to be ~$300 for a set ($400msrp)? For those attending the opening, we will sell both of the prototype sets as well. Any other orders we can take and ship. |

There will be firearm purchasing, just no transfers on site until the new FFL comes through for this location. We will have a large assortment of AR15.com rifles, billet and forged, as well as our 3 gun Benelli's and Glocks. 
We'll also have some 5.56 on hand: 
Even got permission to have members leave messages on the big wall outside our space: 
Gotta figure out the best way to coordinate this. Hopefully no one puts anything vulgar or obscene on it and we lose the opportunity, as it would be cool to fill that with messages from members over time. We're not here to replace a traditional "real" gun shop, but to have a place our members can come and visit where we can feature cool new products. So while it's a first attempt at a place here in Texas, we realize we won't please everyone, especially not at the start. But we do look forward to meeting a bunch of you, and your suggestions and advice are much appreciated! |

Lots of support from the fan base here, but be prepared for some resistance from the Dallas area Mom's Demand Action types. Antiques, crafts, and pentrist type stuff is cool for them, but they will get huffy about firearms and anything related.
The folks that own Canton own the trades days in McKinney. Since the change over there are NO firearms for sale anywhere on the grounds anymore. While the managers of the trades days support you, be prepared for some resistance from the people that attend the shows. FWIW.
