Well...

I don't need to tell anyone how bad things have been in the gun business for small local shops.

More them 100 gun business have closed that I know of in the last years. Due to the government and the massive cost of living increases.

We have held out for many years longer than I thought we would.

With more then 80% of the products we would sell having been taken from us along with almost zero help from the industry wholesalers.

Along with our local economy being at a 70 year low.

No one can get a job here and any staring job is not offered to Canadians.

No one under the age of 25 can get a job

This puts a lot of financial strain on family.

In short we can not keep the store open.

We will be closed as of this coming Wednesday as we move everything into our wearhouse/manufacturing location in Trenton ON.

There is a small chance we will attempt to have a retail spot at our Trenton location.

But unlikely it will be viable.

Elbows up ER!!!!

Pure political theatre… they knew that a whole industry including many small independent businesses and jobs would be lost along with shooting sports, shooting community, and a pastime as old as Canada itself. Knowing all this the Liberals still went through with their plan to get votes instead of actually improving public safety
