Does anyone ever try to rob gun shops?

(In the video game "Deja Vu", you get shot if you try it.)

In reference to your username:
1. Big Guns
2. Big Boomers

You could also go with Giant Gazongas, but I doubt anyone would realize it's a gun store! :hmm:

From a marketing perspective, I think it's good to use something that underscores protection, the geographical location, or anything "tactical."

Like if you were in Texas, a gun shop named "Texas Defense" or "Texans' Protections" or "Big Tex Firearms" or "Texas Tactical" even, haha.

Although, I bought my last handgun from a place called Sportsman's Alley - it doesn't have to be a good name, just a good, clean store with helpful employees and good pricing.
Yep.

I would lean toward tactical shit. I guess you don't want to alienate hunters (though you didn't say what location) but I think the market is currently big for tactical shit and AR-15s.

Put up stuff that you support the NRA (and actually do it of course), 2nd amendement, etc. Between that and tactical out the ass it should connect well with lots of people.

You get what you pay for, and all these results are horrible. I think if I use any of them, a week after I open someone will drive a pickup truck through the front door trying to rob the place.

Robbing a gun store would have interesting results. :eek:
