    Default Another One Bites the Dust - Shooter Ready

    Anyone notice that Shooter Ready is now closed?

    So far in the Denver area we have lost:

    Tom and Joes
    Reloaders Corner
    The Reloading Zone (Firearms Portion)
    Lock and Load Armory
    Jensen Arms


    Anyone care to add to the list?

    Reloading portion was bought out by Bristlecone or something.

    One would think in this current climate...all gun stores are seeing record sales (provided they can maintain some sort of inventory).

    Not every shop that closes its doors does so for any sort of nefarious reason. Sometimes the owner just decides it?s time to retire. Or maybe he/she has other business ventures to pursue.

    Sure there are shops that are no longer around, but I can think of a handful that are around now that that didn?t exist ten or fifteen years ago.

    Its the whole circle of life thing. Hakuna matata, amigos.

    Jensen closed a couple of years ago IIRC so I don't think that one can be blamed on anything going on now.

    If you love your freedom, thank a veteran. If you love to party, thank the Beastie Boys. They fought for that right.

    Reloader's Corner closed due to the unsurprising death of the proprietor. Definitely not a recent event.

    The guy at Tom and Joe's was the sort of person who I could see being open on a Friday, say "Fuck it, I am done", and be closed forever by Monday. I can't remember if he was Tom or Joe.
