Beech Grove Firearms Updates, Rumor Control and Thanks!!

[flightsimmer]

I was just by there and I could have sworn that the steel front door shield was up and I thought I saw lights in the sales room but I was passing a truck and couldn't look back to confirm.

AAAND there just MIGHT be a FIRE SALE!!!

Such an appropriate use of the phrase. I've got my mind set on my 10-22 for plinking, but I haven't convinced the wife yet. Maybe an early Christmas present...

 

[flightsimmer]

OK, I did go back by the store and the front steel door was up and the lights were on but the yellow crime scene tape was still up and a sign said they were closed so it just looks like they were working in the store so don't get too excited yet.

Oh it's Twue, it's Twue

 

[flightsimmer]

So, what's happening at the range lately?
Well I'm glad you asked.
I stop by today and talk to Karen and Michelle and Michelle said that they're still waiting on bids on the contracts to either fix the place up or tear it down and rebuild and they're just waiting. Nothing else that they can do for now.
You know that has got to be hurting their bottom line, sure wish I could help somehow.

And hopefully one of those bids includes a fire suppression system of some kind.

I talked with Greg this morning and he said he expects to hear something within the next 30 days or so, hopefully sooner, also I asked him about the rubber back stop and he said they would continue to use it, its the best in the industry and 78,000 +, people have had no problem with it, it only took one to mess it up. So, there you have it.

Also, he said he really believes after watching the video that the whole thing was an accident.

Ignorance or negligence I'd see, but how can it be an "accident"?

 

[BiscuitNaBasket]

Glad they're doing ok. Can't wait for the range to reopen. I haven't been to an indoor range since the fire... it's just not the same anywhere else.

Not knowing they were tracer rounds.

 

[Glock23od]

I hope the range opens back up soon. It's just a shame how one person can always mess something up for everyone else

The back stop is the best in the industry at doing what catching fire?

 

[OakRiver]

The back stop is the best in the industry at doing what catching fire?

I'm sure it is the best, when used appropriately. There is a reason that most indoor ranges do not permit the use of tracer rounds.

Insurance Companies have a limited time to pay or deny a claim.
So what's up with BGF&R?

 

[sonovasailor]

I am not in the inner-circle at BGF, but a little bird told me that work will commence on Monday. Hoo-rah

Its a little more difficult with commercial insurance.
I'm 24 months into a claim.

That is awesome to hear!

Yeah, I've been hearing that for a long time, I'll believe it when I see it.

 

[flightsimmer]

They're working on the range.

They're working on the range.

So, now do you believe it?
