Wyatt's indoor range

[luvall]

2.12.10 - Went into Wyatt's Guns in Cicero. The indoor range is not operational. They said maybe in 45 days.

They've been saying that for ... meh, a year or so?

I'm surprised to hear the lack of firearms. I wonder how wyatt's is doing...

the lack of firearms is due to the lack of their ffl. they have held up for a while now

I wonder if cash flow is the reason the range still isn't completed? Wonder what's going on.

im not sure i went in there with a buddy of mine a few months ago and there was 2 guys behind the counter and they had a 2x2 stick about 30 or so inches long onsale for about 2,000 so the seem to have a good sense of humor about it but the indoor range has looked exactly the same for about a year now. hope they get things sorted out soon as the seem to be a good group of ppl

A guy I work with in the ER has a suppressor supposed to be coming thru them, it's been almost 2 years, he's had nothing but problems, sounds like a Don's north with a large storage facility, uh, I mean range.

I'm stayin well clear of them.

I remember reading about issues they are having with the town council or something. After getting a permit to build the range now someone has raised objections to the town council about it. I'll swing on in and ask them about it.
I've always been treated well by those at Wyatt's. Hope all goes well for them.

I don't think I would compare anyone to Don's. Even in a joking manner.

wyatts is one of the nicer shops in the central indy area, always helpful, always honest. I've done business there before and will continue to do so in the future

At the present time they don't have a FFL. I have been told that work has started again on the range after a long pause. If you need reasons for all this then I suggest stopping in there and asking them.

 

[Rotor Talker]

Oh I am not, I was just relaying a conversation and business experience a collegue of mine is having with them, I was in there once, can't say it was a friendly experience, my first hand experience that is.

I was actually hoping to give them another shot when their indoor range opened, see if things had improved.

As always, YMMV

Wyatt's was one of the stops on our 'Holiday Gun Shop Tour' after Christmas.

Sounds like things haven't changed since late December. It was a nice looking shop, but inventory was low. We were well treated.

How does a gun shop loose their ffl? Shouldnt you have it to even have a shop?

They should check behind the couch. I'm always finding stuff back there.

the last time i asked they said something that the ffl was still set up for their other building or something like that and it had to be changed over for their new building

 

[caseyc]

Yes they are a great group to deal with, i have always had a positive experience there, maybe there just hurting for money

I guess they left a door open and it got "loose".
On the other hand, I suppose there is more than one way to lose a FFL.

Having just read *another* Don's Guns thread...

It leaves me scratching my head. Here's a gun store, that cannot legally sell guns because they "lost" their FFL for undetermined reasons, a range that has been derelict for a year+ with nothing but promises of its resurection, and a store stocked with mostly empty shelf space...and this forum heaps praise upon them.
Meanwhile, Don's is...well.....Don's. The Devil himself.

Oh well....I'm entertained.

If you don't have an FFL, then it's a museum. It wasn't the greatest store before, really crap service for transfers, no ammo, no accessories.

They lost my business years ago because of service, now it looks like they have lost everyones business because of ignorance.

I don't think that Wyatt's gets much slack around here other than from their longtime customers.
