Happened late June or early July I understand. I am sure there is something more to the story.

I guess The Hub is well known in Tucson and Show Low.

That's odd, as I just asked the owner if he kept his insurance license when he sold the franchise....and he did.

That must be why some of the regular sales guys left, like Ralph and Tom.

The Hub in Tucson seems ok. Nice enough guys and good selection it prices seem high and they’re not my first choice. Hopefully they don’t ruin the old place for you Phoenix guys

Stopped by The Hub today. They had 2 or 3 pallets of 9MM and .38 Special on the floor and a lot of various calibers on their shelves. Things seem to be picking up in that area. Prices were not out of the ordinary considering all things.

9mm ammo is down a lot but people are still ripping others off on places like armslist. Use ammoseek.com if you don't mind ordering. Also Castle firearms has 1000 rds of 9mm brass on their weekly email blasts for $350 plus tax and shipping. Shipping is $28. Not the best I've seen but also not the worse. Have a good one!

I went yesterday. The only thing that appeared different to me were the new faces, and new polo shirts, that's it.

Merchant has been my go to shop for suppressors for years. Aaron always treated me well. Let's hope it remains a decent shop.
