I do all the Security for Academy....that was a fun store to outfit. I talked to one of the Corporate people the day it opened and they sold out of 20 AR's in four hours.

The one in Plano is okay for me, but there can never be enough stores like this. I will make it by there next day or two. I take and pickup people at DFW for church on a regular basis. Bass Pro Shops in Grapevine Mills Mall is my staging area to wait for the flights to come in. Have visited the one in Rockwall/Garland/Mesquite. Took grandchildren with me and we had a blast. Go to Cabelas in Fort Worth at every opportunity.

Beautiful store. Went there Saturday. 10 people working the gun counter and customer's were 6 deep in line all the way across. I think I had to crawl between somebody's leg's just to get up to the counter.
