Just heard that Henry's is closing

Ooohhhhhhh!! I've never used night vision before!!

It's very challenging, but it adds a whole new element of fun. I have a suppressed Mk18 with a drop in 22 conversion that's great for learning.

I'll bring my -- oh 'cuse me -- GRUMPY's full auto to play with! It hasn't been out of the safe in a minute or two. Lol

Nice!

Nice!

Ok ... I'll do some recon tomorrow!! I need to take the guys and Barbara some more green tomatoes anyway. These things aren't gonna get ripe, I don't think, and a lot of the guys there like fried green tomatos.

Totally, but what I can't wrap my head around is why someone isn't buying it to operate the property as a gun range.

That property is like a .2 acre island in the middle of several cities, so it's literally the closest outdoor gun range that's possible. The next closest location where a range can be permitted is out by Banner Road.

That's why Henry's range is only 25 yards long. The city limits are literally on the other side of the berm.

I heard it is zoned differently or grandfathered in now and new owners would not be unable to shoot firearms there.

I talked to Henry the other day, he’s just retiring, plain and simple. He and his wife are going to just kick back and enjoy their retirement. Both are in their 70s and he said he has a few more things on his bucket list that he’d like to check off. With the recent boom in business thanks to COVID-19, he got to retire a little sooner than he expected.

Hmmmm ... I'm gonna cry!

I heard he just wanted to retire (as previously stated) and he didn't want to sell the business. He didn't want there to be a chance for the "Henry's" name to get soiled if operations went downhill. A buddy of mine is an investor and was looking into buying Henry's but it's not for sale.

Absolutely.
