I will try to swing by and check it out next time I'm in the Northland.

Do you know if he carries CZ?  I'm shopping for the PTA Repeal at the end of the month...

When the store was at his home he had CZ.  In fact I just bought a 452 from him.
8/8/2007 7:23:42 PM EDT

Most importantly, does he sell ammo by the case and if so, is the price competitive?
8/8/2007 7:28:50 PM EDT
[#6]
Hmmmm, I'm going to be in Gladstone tomorrow.  Maybe I'll have time to check it out.

He has ammo by the case, when I was up there yesterday he was still stocking his shelves.  Call him and get a price.

Just wanted to chime in real quick and say that Alan's shop is awesome!  He helped me get my first pistol for my 21st birthday back in May (PX4) at his old location and most recently a transfer on a new Sig.  He was more than helpful with all my questions and even marked down some target ammo for me so I wouldn't have to make an extra trip to Walmart for some WWB.  I couldn't recommend him enough!

Oh and I've found that anything I wanted that he didn't have on hand (new accessories, mags, etc.), he's ordered for me without hesitation.  Go check it out if you get the chance.

Yep, US Gun is very soon to be a full time going concern.  For the MO guys I haven't talked to before, I'm Andrew, I'm Alan's assistant manager.  We DO have ammo by the case, a bunch of wolf 556 and a case and a half of prvi partisan m193.  Prices are as competitive as we can get, ammo is going up like crazy.  We have a couple of CZ's in the shop now, and as posted above, happy to order whatever you need.  Transfer price is going up to $15 now that we have a store to pay for, but still cheaper than anyone else in town I know of.  I'd like to get a day set where as many arfcommers as possible can all show up together, maybe that will convince Alan to get a dealer account here on arfcom ;)

IM me with any questions you have, or keep posting them here and I'll keep checking back.  We are looking forward to having all of you guys come in and say hey.  The EBR's won't be on the shelves for a month or so, but we do plan to carry a FULL line of AR's and accessories.  Need a while to be open and get some $$ flowing.  Thanks for the kind words so far!

AS long as you guys are cooler than the jackasses up the road at Guns Un******* I will shop with you. You are going to have a little compition with Dennys tho. Cant wait to stop by!!

How much for the cases of Wolf 223???Thanks!

think mr and mrs TOOL at guns unlamed are out of business. small wonder.
8/11/2007 9:59:15 AM EDT
[#14]
I think when people start to see the price comparisons between Denny's and US Gun we'll be fine ;)  

*Denny, who does a lot of business here on the board, is a great guy.  The retail store bearing his name is NOT my favorite place to try to do business*

I'll check on ammo prices and get back to you guys
8/11/2007 10:47:53 AM EDT

Are you talking about Guns Unlimited??? are you sure they went out??? I was just in there like 2 weeks ago trying to find a replacement thumb screw for a scope. That guy is a real dick, he always has some sort of smart ass comment about everything.

treat you customers fair and you will succeed.  THe number one problem from gun store employees and owners is the cockbag know it all attitude.  Sounds like you have some support from the board so you must be doing something right,  I will make sure to stop in some weekend.

Tyler, if you come by and don't bring one of your FS2000's I'll mace you!
I'm hoping like hell that monday is the start of official full time open hours, but getting a gunshop open is a LOT of work.  We DO have several cases of wolf 556 laying around, I know because Alan made me move them all!  Going to try to get some more in before the big jump in Sept, but the distributors are short on them.  And now I've got to deal with you ammo whores here on arfcom too??  

Guys, feel free to call the store any time, number is 816-436-2700.  We WANT your transfer business as well as gun and accessory business, but check the store first before you go internet buying, Alan will make you a straight deal!

UPDATE- I stopped in today. Nice place, with AWESOME deals. They were still getting everything set up and displayed, but had a nice display of handguns that included Glock, S&W, a NICE HKusp for cheap real cheap. I was told that there is a TONE of AR stuff comming in and still needing to be displayed. Great deals on safes price includes delivery. nice shotguns and saw a poloytech ak47. Ill definatly be going back sometime around on the grand opening about the 3rd week of Sept. Apparently S&W gave them a revolver of some sort to give away in some kind of drawing on the day of the grand opening. I would give them a few more days to get stuff out(today was one of the first few days they put the open sign up) and stop in to check out the ARs. Bunch of Bushmasters and all kinds of accessories too that are not out yet.

Stopped in again today! got 2 CProducts 30s for about $13 each. Had a nice HKSL8 and still had the nice Poloytech with spike bayo. Good prices all around. This is definatly one of the better shops around the KC area. Give the guys some more time to get in all the AR accessories, but if your looking for a rifle or pistol check them first!!!

Thanks to all the fellow ARFCOMers who helped make yesterday a rousing success. For only being open 2 weeks, we had a bang up day and more than doubled our previous sales record. We were swamped from the minute we opened. There were many celebrating the death of the PTA and we really truly appreciate your business. And sorry for some of the wait times some of you had to endure. Having only one NICS computer makes it tough. We are getting bigger, faster and more stuff as quick as we can. And thanks again for you guys making it happen.

Stopped by a couple of weeks ago with Ak4784. The owner (not gonna post his name cuz i don't know if he would want me to) seems like a real cool dude.

Had a pretty decent selection for only being open a couple of weeks.

Has some really great deals on some safes too DELIVERED.

The owner's name is Alan Rost and he doesn't mind if everyone knows it. We affectionately know him a "Crazy Alan for his CRAZY low prices" and Ultra high trade-in values. If you have got something to sell or trade, this is the place and he is the man.

Our safe prices are the lowest around and INCLUDE local delivery.

Come on in and give us a "shot" at your business.
