    Bare Arms is a new gun shop in Noblesville. It is at 2370 Conner Street. The staff are awesome, very up to date products and they have new things about every week. The guns are priced right, for example he has a Remmington 700 for $685.00 right now. I hope the people in Hamilton Co. (Noblesville) support this local shop. We have needed one forever!

    Thank you:patriot:

    Can anybody recommend a good gun store in west central indiana?

    If you want to shoot, and try out a few calibers, you aren't too far from Lafayette, drop by Applied Ballistics. Great range to shoot at.

    I was at Bradis a week ago (on my birthday), they have an excellent selection to look at. They are on 67 SW of Indy.

    I just completed my LGS "Around the World".

    Bought one from PSS today. That means I've gotten one from Indy Trading Post, Bradis, PSS, two from BGF and even one from GM.

    I've got one "on order" from Indy Gun Safety. Did I leave anyone out?

    Its all good to support your local gun shops, however....these days a few bucks to some is a big deal....if i can find the gun i want online or at a out of town shop....gotta go with it.

    I've bought about 3 handguns at Blythes though.

    Why would I ever buy from a shop?They are always overprices and I can find the same thing at a gun show or an online retailer for cheaper.

    I buy a lot from Dave's in Holland, IN. His prices are better than anything that I saw at the Indy 1500 today and he knows my name when I walk in the door. I would pay a little more to support a local gun shop but I'm glad that I don't have to.

    Yep, Madison Outdoors. Always has a great variety of guns new and used and seems to always have ammo in stock of every caliber. Ive bought probably over 6 guns and who knows how much ammo there. My GF has now bought two guns there. Of course one was for me :)

    No, I don't, since Blythe's in Griffith lied to me about the price and reason for the price of transfers.

    I do support Midwest Gun Exchange in Mishawaka....

    I live in North Indy and support Premier & Bradis, both great shops. Friendly, knowledgable, and have a great selection IN stock! You can touch what youre looking at. Sure you can find cheaper prices on line, but factor in shipping and FFL fees. You can't handle merchandise on line or ask a ton of questions, you can't ask a person to show you the weapon you're interested in. I think simply supporting a small shop...not a chain is the right thing to do, period. I hate Walmart, Cabelas, Gander Mountain, and Walmart. Did I mention Walmart?
    Just sayin...

    I like my LGS's. There are at least 6 within less than 20-30 minutes from me and go to them all. Plainfield Shooting Supplies, Bradis, Leathers Limited, Guns and Ordinance, Indy Tactical, and the new one in Martinsville-not sure the name. I've bought from each on except the new Martinsville shop.
