Exactly. I thought someone might bring up the "dress code" issue. It doesn't bother me much when a business posts only 30.07, that's their preference, but when it's a gun store they are essentially fighting against our mutual cause.
Eagle Gun Range in Lewisville is an indoor range and they sell guns. Eagle also prohibits open carry. I think that is an asinine policy but I still patronize them.
I visited a rather upscale gun range/shop on Houston's west side... they have a HUGE 30.07 sign at the entrance.
Which one? I work on Houston's west side, and the only "upscale" gun range / shops I can think of are Boyert, Top Gun, and Athena. I know Boyert doesn't have a 30.07 as of yesterday when I stopped by to sight in a scope for my new Tavor. Is it one of the other two?

I see no reason not to warn the other members here before they plan their next range session.
It's Athena. They've had that sign up for some time. I'd stopped going there their opening.
  • It's a beautiful location, but it really has a country club appeal to it. Their gun store feels like the atmosphere of an iPhone store, and most of their staff was friendly, but not all were really 'gun people'.
  • Once, when I took my SP2022 out for it's maiden voyage, I had a bit of a problem with it on the range. I asked the guys at the range check-in-desk if they had an armorer or gunsmith who might be able to lend me a hand. Their answer was, “It’ll be $50 just to have him walk out to you.”
  • I started my daughter shooting at age 4. She's been to Spring Guns & Ammo, Top Gun, American Shooting Center, Boyert, and other places out of state. But Athena said she cannot shoot at their range until after she's 11?!?
  • And then they posted their 30.07 signs. I get it when a restaurant, daycare, or whatever wants to keep guns covered, but a gun range?!?

Smart move to remove signs. I suggest you go to https://www.texas3006.com/ to notify them that you are no longer 30.06 posted.
I'll remove the entry from the Texas3006.com site today.

Re: Avenger Arms in Stafford

I was in Stafford today, in that office complex, taking the NRA Instructor Pistol Shooting Course, when I saw that sign and posted it on www.Texas3006.com. To be honest, I was astounded that they would have such a thing on their door, alienating a significant portion of their primary customer base. I could imagine my wife putting on her jewelry store: no coming in here if you really like to wear the jewelry you buy, unless i know you well. No, I guess she wouldn't do that either.

Oh well, no loss for me.
