Bump?

Bill, you call that a bump? This is an INGO OPEN CARRY NIGHT. That requires a special bump.

Like the following




A new brand of cigars called FOUNDRY just arrived at the cigar lounge. The manufacturer wants to sponsor a cigar event so I figured that the NWI INGO group might be up for another evening get together. OPEN CARRY is optional, but if you want to pop your OC cherry in a place that will welcome your gun without question, this is the friendliest place to begin your OC journey that I know of

We've tried some of these new Foundry cigars at the lounge and they are moderately priced and fairly mild so they won't get newbies sick, but have enough old world cigar character to keep experienced smokers interested.

From the public press release:

General Cigar is proud to introduce FOUNDRY, a new boutique collection created to amplify the artistry and romanticism of premium cigars.

FOUNDRY is a stark juxtaposition between the old and the new. This visually-arresting collection was inspired by the art form of “steampunk,” which is both a retrospective and futuristic interpretation of innovation.

FOUNDRY is the brainchild of Michael Giannini who led the team that created the breakthrough brand. “Innovation comes from many sources,” he notes. “It is a pleasure and an honor to be able to call upon our greatest resources: the collective talent of cigar masters, our expertise in tobacco cultivation, processing and blending and the creativity of our artisan cigar rollers and box makers to bring FOUNDRY to fruition.”

Through a groundbreaking approach previously unseen in the premium cigar category, FOUNDRY entices the premium cigar connoisseur to take a bold step back in time and a quantum leap into the future to envision the artistry of handmade cigars through the lens of unbridled innovation.

Visual considerations aside, FOUNDRY’s avant-garde approach extends to its masterfully balanced synthesis of flavors. Featuring an indulgent collection of five proprietary tobaccos from four different countries, each aged between three and six years, Foundry’s foundation is amplified through an eight year old wrapper developed by General Cigar. Called H-47 Pleno Sol, the lustrous wrapper imparts a deeply complex, layered smoking experience like no other.

As always, cigar smoking is OPTIONAL. We won't pressure anyone to buy or smoke a cigar. The event will have complimentary coffee, water and pepsi. There will be a guitar player in the lounge playing older rock, classics, etc. We may have snacks to munch on???

As is typical, the event will run from 6pm to 9pm. If the parking lot is full, feel free to park in the lot next door on the west side of the property.

I live close and love a good cigar now and then. Guns go hand in hand with good tobacco.

Well hopefully we will see you there

You'll be able to tell who most of the INGO members are because about 75% of them will be Open Carrying at these events. Some will be CC. Some don't carry at all but come out to the events to talk guns.

Looking forward to meeting you.

 

[SmokinSigs357]

Looking pretty good that I'll be able to make it. Would be nice meeting you all.

Start of the New Year ... bump

 

[SmokinSigs357]

Are Opus X's still hard to come by? Really like 'em and have a few hanging around the humidor. I remember a few years ago, they were like hi cap mags today.

The store stocks Opus X Lost City series cigars as well as GOD OF FIRE and A.F. Annaversario ultra premiums. They range from about $19 to almost $30 per stick for those 3 brands. All 3 are blended by, made by Fuente~Fuente. We have both Don Carlos and Carlito Fuente selections (father/son). All 3 are in stock.

The UPS man and his big brown truck just brought me a new present. Its a new sign for the cigar lounge. I'll install it tomorrow!

 

[danimal]

Where'd you order the sign from?

Compliance signs. I think I may have to buy another one. I got the small size and its pretty small. Should be bigger!

LINK => ComplianceSigns.com - Search Results for guns are welcome on premises

 

[Sniper 79]

That is a great sign. I want one for my house!

Count me in. I am looking forward to meeting you guys and talking guns.

 

[danmdevries]

I guess I never realized your shop is the one I go to. Might make it over there on the 17th, marked it on my calender.

 

[SmokinSigs357]

That sign is awesome!!!

 

[melensdad]

That sign is awesome!!!

Yea, but I made a big mistake. I bought the small sign. I need to reorder and get a bigger one, or maybe just put up 2 small signs in different parts of the store?

 

[actaeon277]

Or put a smaller uglier sign next to it.
It'll make your sign appear larger and purtier.

 

[Andy219]

I'll be in Thursday to check out the sign. Make sure everything is hunky dorey for the event.
