I'm not familiar with that one either John.  It's about 30 minutes from me same as Buford. I'll probably check it out on my way home one evening.

Thanks

I am right between Bullseye and the Johns Creek indoor range. I have stopped going to Bullseye all together. I do all my shooting at the new Johns Creek range located at Old Atlanta/Mcginnis

Haven't been there in ~6mo but it's GA Firing Line.  They upgraded the range a bit since then.  It was a pretty good store.  Had some nice cashiers to look at as well.  Not models but better than the normal gunshop commando.

I go to shoot at Georgia Firing Line. Good place to go.

Years ago I thought it was called Fred's?  Was it Nicks?

I moved to ATL in '93 and it was Bud's or Bob's or something that started with a B.  Then it was Nick's. 

I moved into a new neighborhood in Acworth/Kennesaw in early Dec '94.  Had painters in doing punch list work.  I couldn't keep my eye on all of them.  One of them found my guns that I hadn't put up yet (still hadn't unpacked) and stole a brand new Beretta 92FS Stainless and a bunch of jewelry.  I didn't realize it for 2 weeks.  The guy was on parole and sold it for $75.  The cops got him and he went back to jail.  The gun was never recovered.

I called around for prices for the insurance company and Bud's/Bob's was the highest priced gun shop anywhere.  This was back when guns didn't sell anywhere near list price but he was almost full list price.  After that, I didn't go there for years until it was Nick's.  Always thought of the place as a ripoff.

I had the slide of my Ruger LCP Cerokoted at GA Firing Line.  They did a damn good job for only $65.  Now that I think about it, their price on the G43 was $10 less than I paid.  It would have saved me from driving all the way to Dawsonville.
