SMKW selling ammo

[Shug]

Stopped in SMKW Saturday and they are making some changes. They started selling ammo Wednesday. And are gonna start selling modern firearms within the next couple of weeks.  They said "Buds" was gonna open a gun shop across the way at the antique mall

Cool..... :rock:

Rumors of Bud's opening in the area have been floating around for a while, but they continue to deny they have any plans to do so.

So did they actually have ammo? Reasonable prices?

What's the point of opening a gun store in a tourist area? Most of the tourist that visit PG and Gatlinburg are from out of state  and can't buy firearms here. Unless, they are hoping to do a great mail home to local gunstore business. I would love it if a Bud's opened up there with the deals that have.

J Floyd's Golf and Guns has operated just down the road for years.

Yes they had ammo in stock and selling it. A lot of Wolf brand. Prices were about the same as other places

So, because buds is planning, they want to try and get a jump on the action I see.

I will have to swing by on my day off this week. It shouldn't be to hard to give J Floyd's a run for their money.

Went this past sat.

Wolf 762x39 was $259 x 1000. PLUS TAX

They had wolf and tulammo. 7.62,223,45,9mm. All steel case. They had a lot of ammo.

It was just inside the front door to the left,

[FUJIMO]

Was there also this past week. One side, as tncobra stated, 223 in bulk cases. To your right they have a display case with small quantities of other ammo. No 22 to be had.

I stopped in yesterday and they had .22 and .380 and a good variety of other cal's from just about every maker. They had a ton of ammo and it was stacked high on those racks on the left as you walk in. Looks like they are still remodeling where the "gun" area will be. Should be pretty big by the size of the area they're working on. Also saw they had 3 counters full of different ammo on the right side as you walk in. They had .22 in stock and i got 2 boxes of 325 rounds. I was told by the guy at the counter that they will be getting in scopes, clips, guns, holsters, targets, acessories, and about everything that most gun stores will have. I live in dandridge so this will give me a reason to stop in there more often.

Awesome.buds hasn't even flipped a light switch on and they have dead on competition already. Having 1 stores that close will give buyers some good prices. Fear this ammo bitches!!!!!

Good for "tourism" too. Give me more reason to go down there anyway. I try for once every 4-6 months, wouldn't mind stopping by more often.

I loved smkw as a pit stop, I'm w ya,can't wait to see em get loaded up w goods. Really hope they give buds a hard run on pricing... Be fun to see if they get more inventory than outpost and outdoor junction combined!
