Reeder Custom Guns - So a guy I know was in my shop today complaining about the

LGS (bigger one in Rochester, NY) is folding up. Already closed his other store a few months ago. I told him its his fault they are going under. He said no way, I buy my powder, primers, and lead shot there. (He would never pay the shipping) I said, yea but you buy all your other stuff from Dicks, Gunbroker and the internet. What you gonna do when all the LGS are gone? He replied that he doesn't buy off the internet... Before he left I noticed he had new brakes and rotors on his car. So me being the smart alec I am said, " nice new brakes there where did you get the nicely painted rotors?" He replied ROCK AUTO (internet). THERE I REST MY CASE!
A lot of people are in for a rude awakening.

The traveling salesmen complained about general stores. General stores complained about specialty shops. Specialty shops complained about big box stores. Big box stores complain about internet shopping.

Times change and we have to change with them. We generally dont like it, but time does not stand still.

Nor does it work when we try to alter reality to play the victim.

My dad always said "everybody's crow is the blackest."

Problem is everybody talks a good game. We see it on here too. Slamming Facebook one day, posting what they saw on Facebook the next.

As long as we support the other side, theyll continue to advance.
