Join us at Pro Arms on Saturday, March 27th for the annual JLE / Pro Arms Customer Appreciation Day Open House. We are planning the following special activities in the gun shop:
5% off our already low prices on all in-stock firearms currently priced at $300 or more.
Special prize drawings throughout the day.
10 AM and 2 PM Free Seminars on Concealed Carry. Have your questions ready! Pre-register at the shop for a guaranteed seat!
Members of the Pro Arms Podcast Team will be on hand during the day to answer questions about guns, gear and the Pro Arms Podcast.
Massad Ayoob will be available for questions and to autograph copies of his books, the Gun Digest Book of Concealed Carry and the Gun Digest Book of Combat Handgunnery, which are for sale in the shop. We might even have copies of the soon to be released, Massad Ayoob’s Greatest Handguns of the World.
And, as always, there will be the customary food and fun that John’s annual event is famous for. Stop in and visit on our BIG DAY!
We finally have a few of the new Ruger Light Compact Revolvers (LCR) available in the store. Both the regular grip and the Crimson Trace Laser Grip versions are in stock. These are still in short supply, so stop by now if you would like to see why this innovative Ruger design is setting a new standard in the world of small, lightweight revolvers.
Lots of the stuff you read about in gun magazines and on gun forums is right at hand at Pro-Arms these days.
The best selection of Springfield Armory XD series and S&W M&P series auto pistols that you’ll probably find within a day’s drive, and probably at the best prices. Pro-Arms has ‘em in standard, longslide, and compact, with and without manual safeties.
You don’t like the Internal Lock on today’s Smith & Wesson revolvers? Come in and check out the “lemon squeezer” Model 42. It doesn’t have that feature which S&W purists love to hate, but it does have some of the finest workmanship you’ll see on a modern production revolver. The grip safety actually pushes the web of the hand slightly back, giving better trigger reach and more control of the gun.
Looking for a .44 Magnum for hunting season? We have a cherry S&W 629 stainless with four-inch barrel, bargain priced.
Personal defense gun for pocket or purse? We have the best prices you’ll find in Florida for brand new Smith & Wesson Airweight .38 Specials, in all three styles. There’s the Model 637 Chief Special with conventional hammer design, the Model 638 Bodyguard with hammer shroud so you can cock the gun if you need to, but it won’t snag on the draw, and the Model 642 “hammerless” Centennial for the slickest possible draw, and a design which lets your hand get higher on the grip and control it better in double action defensive shooting. For those on a tighter budget, Pro-Arms has the full line of Taurus and Charter Arms revolvers, too.
You’ll be buying the guns from serious shooters, not clerks who don’t care. And don’t forget to ask about the monthly CCW classes taught by champion shooter Jon Strayer (one of only seven 5-gun Masters among IDPA’s 10,000 members worldwide) and Steve Denney, who writes the regular firearms column for the on-line police professional journal, Officer.Com.
Handgun ammo is still scarce, although we have received some 9mm Full Metal Jacket ammo and we still have .40 S&W and .45ACP range/training ammo available.
We have a good supply of 5.56mm/.223 in PMC, Federal American Eagle Tactical and Serbian Privi Partizan. We also have a smaller amount of Wolf Military Classic and Hornady TAP.
All .380 ammo is still unavailable, as are most of the premium carry loads. We’ll let you know when we get more in stock.
We now have two of the 6 1/2 inch barreled Taurus Judges (one Stainless Steel and one Blued) and two of the new “PUBLIC DEFENDER” Judges, both in Stainless Steel.
The Public Defender has a 2 inch barrel and small grip, similar to the Taurus 85 revolvers. It is the closest thing so far to being able to have a Judge in your pocket. Stop in and check them out!
The new Ruger AR style SR-556 rifles are now in stock. These Rugers have a gas piston operating system, full top and handguard rails, plus Troy flip-up front and rear sights. The rifles also come with 3 Magpul 30 round magazines. This rifle is going to be a great value among the gas piston AR style guns. Stop by and let us show you what Ruger has been doing in their New Hampshire factory!
The supply of AR and AK style rifles has improved and we now have both types available in the shop. We have Bushmaster, Stag Arms, DPMS Panther and S&W M&P brand AR M4 carbines and both Romanian and US made AK rifles. We also have plenty of magazines and a better selection of ammo in 5.56mm/.223. We also have a Walther-made Colt AR style .22 LR carbine.
We will not be scheduling any CCW classes in August, due to the extreme heat. The CCW class on July 11th will still be held, as we have quite a few people registered. We will minimize the amount of time spent outdoors at the range.
If you are interested in attending the July class, please contact us as soon as possible.
Don’t forget to stop by Pro Arms while you are attending the Annual Customer Appreciation Day at John’s Lawn Equipment on Saturday, March 28th. Take a look at our new gun shop and visit with Team Pro Arms, including well-know firearms expert, trainer and writer, Massad Ayoob. Mas will be signing any of his books you bring by or purchase at Pro Arms. Most of the Pro Arms Podcast crew will be also be on hand to talk about our podcasts and answer any firearms and training questions. We all look forward to seeing you at the Open House!
