I actually like PS and if he had decided to open in South Seattle Area, I would do business with him despite the drive from Olympia. But, cannot make it to Lynnwood area that often. He looked out for WAGUNS.ORG with some group buys and that is one smart cat. His house is like a Library.

Not putting Welchers on the side of the building is like opening a McDonalds with no arch. Bad business decision. Can't wait till they open.

Does anyone know the caliber limits yet? 5.56/223?

I'm North of Bremerton and we have nothing for shops. Sportsman's is our best option :(

Boerners is decent and just north of Belfair is this place. Very nice selection treated me right last time I stopped by.

Just drove into the parking lot yesterday and thought exactly the same thing.

The setup is that it's basically a rectangular building/lot. Small parking area just off the Main Street and a long driveway along the side and then another parking area near the I-5 side. Not having a sign on the side facing south is a big mistake. They also need something near the entrance off the road or something along that fencing side.

Maybe they have something in the works?

When I drove around they were inside working. At this point it's all interior work and lots of it from what I can tell.

I was just in Welcher's a couple of days ago. (Tacoma store)
When I asked about the range, I thought the guy was going to rip my head off and shit down my neck.
I'm not kidding, he just about lost it.
I let it go after that.

Must be a sensitive issue... icon_eek

I'm sure delays, permit issues, logistics of material, construction cost over runs and delays after delay and all that money that is tied up into it already and more that is needed to get it even basically up to just to open the basics.

And maybe a few nervous investors giving the evil eye and wanting to back out and wanting their money back.

Just guessing... really I hope he gets the range up and going soon.

Doesn't make sense. You would think they would want to talk up their new digs to people.

They had been excited and talking it up for the last six months of 2016.
Now, when people ask about it and they don't have any answers, I too would be a little pissed with nothing to tell the public.
Like Jeep promising to build a pickup again. When did they start talking about doing it? Five years ago. By the time it's built, no one except for the true die hards are going to GAF.

Does the North End have 25,000-ish Soldiers? They tend to be more into guns than those Navy guys up north.
+1 but I might be biased. LOL

Do Navy guys even have guns? Do they even qualify with a weapon in their initial entry training?
