Lock and load armory

Went in last week to get a lower, great experience. Nice to go into a gun shop and feel comfortable and get helped right away. Hope to do more business there in the future.

Stopped in as I was driving by. Here is my impression:

Pros-
-small shop usually means good customer service and attention
-good visible location (although parking could be improved)
-store is not cluttered with gear. Lots of room to move around without being funneled by isles
-decent selection & representation of firearms for size of store.

Cons-
-ammo prices were very high
-the gear they did carry were off name brands (If a good pack sells for $150+ and this brand's copy was $29.99....what was sacrificed?)
-the guy working there was telling a customer that the .50 BMG on display there (a bolt AR-50?) will stop a tank and destroy it with one round. As I was leaving (and shaking my head) he was further describing how the .50 would go right through the engine of a tank as well...

Although the store seemed nice the outright lies being told there convinced me to never spend a dime there. I've heard some good "behind the counter" stories before but this one tops them all. I'm not sure who the guy was that was working there but he lost ALL credibility by running his mouth.

Has anyone been by lately? I hope all is well for Mr Mike! He's always been good to me.

Bought an I.O. Hellhound from Mike yesterday. He was initially somewhat standoffish but slowly warmed up to me after spending some time asking questions.

Their selection was okay. Lots of AR's, a handful of pistols and I bought the only AK style rifle they had in stock. They have 22LR in stock but it's pretty pricey.

I would shop there again.
