I went to both the farrow rd and fernandina rd locations today and both were overcrowded! For any of you who have attended their special events, the crowds were about 3/4 the size of those! On a Wednesday, at 10AM!!
At Farrow, people were parked all along the road and across the street at Ram Clutches (which they are asking shoppers NOT to do). There are no rifles on the display wall. It looks like they are moving! So many people were in there! Shannon was on the phone dealing with something; everyone in there looked overwhelmed... It was crazy. After he got off the phone, I was able to find out from him that the NFA items had been moved to Fernandina, so I went there. Fernandina was similar. Very little parking space, elbow to elbow walking space, lines at the registers, every employee swamped. They had rifles, but no uppers like they normally do. Nearly everyone there was buying a long gun (i assume ARs), and there were several AR sized boxes behind the counter. They were answering the phone (on the first ring), and everytime they hung up, it rang again. If they hired another 50 employees, it wouldnt help. There is just too much demand. The NFA stuff moved there from Farrow hasnt been resorted yet, so I unfortunately didnt get what I came for; but i think many people didnt get what they came for. I grabbed some bricks of .22, and got out of there!! Good luck, Palmetto State Armory, and good luck to you all with your purchase plans - it is absolute pandemonium out there right now! Ps, there are NO magpul magazines in there. Dont even waste your gas. Dont call them to confirm. Very few parts available either.
