[QUOTE="Nighthawk, post: 2374387, member: 3906"] Sorry to hear this, my heart goes out to Heartland and their employees, (no pun intended). Any time a gun store or range goes under is bad news to all weapon enthusiast. I am seeing this happen a lot lately. I am sure we will see this happen more as the year goes on. I have also seen this taking place with vendors at the gun shows too. The bottom line is when the owner/company is not making a profit, thus going into the red, he has no other choice but to sell the business, go bankrupt, or close down before he has to declare bankruptcy. Before making that decision, chances are that the owner/ company has made every effort to increase profit. I have never been to Heartland, but I am sure it was a nice place to shoot at, and they sponsored machine gun shoots along with Cold Hand Arms, which according to our members was a lot of fun. Lets remember the good times and not the bad. Berry having to shut it down and go out of business, is not an easy choice an owner has to make. Have a little heart for Hartland (again, no pun intended) they are doing this because they have no other choice. The idea of members going in together and buying the place is a good idea, but remember he closed down for a reason, think about that reason before you invest your money. Just a suggestion. Good luck Berry, and all the Heartland employees in future endeavors. [/QUOTE]
