I stopped by the Arms Room Saturday afternoon to see how things were coming along.

They had opened, albeit a "soft opening" and the place was packed. I saw Tom Estep (el gato) and spoke with him for quite a while and he introduced me to the owner, Bill James. After speaking with him I realized he has a great vision for the store and has put a lot of thought into not only the business side of things, but in carrying products that will appeal to shooters of all disciplines. For example, he is stocking handguns from all of the major manufacturers, and has a good selection of holsters.... I didn't see any Comp Tac stuff, but I'll leave that up to Gregg to handle. He is a "Premier Dealer" for 5.11 Tactical as well as Woolrich and EOTECH. His rifles included various M4's, Springfield Armory M1A's, and lots more. He also became a stocking dealer for Steyr rifles and had some beautifully stocked bolt action guns as well. Shotgunners will find home defense, hunting and sporting guns as well.

There was lots more, like ammo, scopes, binoculars, etc.... but I just wanted to give an update due to all of the interest that I've seen on the forum here.

Mr. James has done quite an impressive job so far. He explained to me that so many people had been coming by the past week while they were still stocking and organizing that he decided today, they would open for business while they continued to receive shipments, stock shelves and get organized.

One important note here: the range is not open yet. They are still working on it with a tentative opening date for the shooting range to be August 1st.

The phone number on their new brochure I left with is 281-332-0706.
