Any word on when they'll be back in the firearms business?

B&J as you knew them will not likely ever be back in business... at least not the partnership.  Each of the former partners has stated they plan to open their own shops in the near future.  I have no idea as to the status of ATF's investigation into the various allegations.  Sorry I can't provide more info, but I am guessing the whole story is only privy to Brian, Jim, their attornies and ATF.

Wow.  Went up there in february or early march and was told "any day now"
Now who knows.  
It was a nice shop and brian was pretty funny

I know what you mean Tom, they have gotten the run around for 6 months now...  I lost my second home.

Quoted: I lost my second home.

Same thing happened to my family when Edelman's got shut down.  My father, bro and I went there every Sat afternoon to check out the toys.  Then I got a job there and I got to play with all the guns 4 days a week!

Then the bastard owner shut the store down and sold the whole thing off, while we were beating the other gun store which was but 300 yards away!
