What do you guys think of this? A combination >gunshop/range

>>33644134
That's quite the manly establishment. It'd do well in red states, assuming you yourself, the owner, is also manly.

But OP is a fag so it'll never work.

why the barber shop tho?

>>33644149
I'm not going
>le manly
I just think those are three things that go well together. Would also appeal to the millenial hipster numale memesters with their beards and gf's strap ons

>>33644156
Because I'm a young male who would like to get his haircut without either going to some family place or going to a barber shop full of older middleaged men.

>>33644156
You can upkeep you buzzcut for a dollar so people will use it every time they go there.

>>33644169
>>33644156
So my assumption is that there are other young males out there who would like that as well.

>>33644177
This is also a good idea.

>>33644169
>>33644177
>>33644181

a gun range/bar&grill sounds fine, but the barber shop idea is just retarded.

just make a tex-mex restraunt called Shooters (like hooters but with shoots), with an attached gun range where you can rent out cowboy guns and shoot at cowboy-themed shit.

>>33644134
I dunno. It's a little too "numale buying back his masculinity" and people like that are usually liberal faggots who hate guns.

I would however be very happy with a gun range/store that doesn't gouge you on firearm/ammo prices. They always seem to be the most expensive by far.

Also adding a grill would be nice. Some places do that already.

>>33644224
>I would however be very happy with a gun range/store that doesn't gouge you on firearm/ammo prices

not gonna happen. that's pretty much the only way gun stores can stay in business.

>>33644134
In Los Angeles there is a place called Oak Tree that has:

Pro Shop
Beretta Show Room
Pistol Bays
Steel Target Bay
Clay Range
Rifle Range
Restaurant/Grill (Good burgers and fries)

Probably forgetting some amenity.

>>33644156
It's obvious. You need a hair cute at a minimum every two weeks and you can get it while you wait on a lane to open. When done shooting you can wash your hands and get a burger.

I wouldn't have more than two chairs if I was OP and offer to let a freelance barber rent the space for some nominal charge to pay off the chairs. I think it would end up being risky to employ a barber. You'll make money on ammo sales and food.

>>33644134

Sounds like a great way to meet young gay men.

Is that your intention?

>>33644134
I like the idea, but I get the feeling it would come off as "too hipster" for some people on here. It's getting harder to find decent barbershops especially with all the "sportsclips" chains popping up, and they can't even do a decent fade.

>>33644301

I feel like a barbershop/grill part would raise some health code concerns. And I sure as heck wouldn't want someone with wing grease or some shit on their hands finger-fucking guns in the store.

>>33644134
Forget about the barber shop. That's retarded, why not a hipster tattoo shop while you're at it.

How about something practical like a coffee place or a carwash?

>>33644181

Certainly, I'm looking for young males with my interests, and this place sounds great. Will you also have a rainbow-colored bar?

>>33644413
I'm not saying I will patronize it, but if I had to have a gay bar in my town, one with an attached gun shop would be okay with me. Hell, this whole tranny thing has me not really giving a shit about gay dudes anymore, as long as they vote progun.

>>33644134
Anthony Bourdain actually went to a combined restaurant/range somewhere in Asia while filming A Cook's Tour.

>>33644406
Coffee clearly can just be served in the restaraunt. Carwash is too random.

I don't know, maybe I'm more on the faggoty end of the spectrum so I don't see it, but a barbershop sounds just fine attached to this. They're traditionally a place to shoot the shit, sounds like a perfect facility if you can keep up the overhead on the whole thing.

>>33644357
This is the major thing, though. In America, where I assume this would be, there's some really stringent ventilation/safety requirements on indoor ranges. I feel like with a food safety concern attached to the same building (Unless you just have an alley between them, but that kind of defeats the purpose) it'll be a nightmare to get certified. I feel like you might have to practically hermetically seal them off from each other and have hand washing stations between them to make sure nobody's eating lead particulate or whatever the fuck. Though if you make it both ways, that solves the "hot sauce on guns" shit people are saying.

I love the idea, but it'll be hell to get approved, and you'd have to choose a place with the right level of rural patrons and urban support to keep it running. You'd have to have people want to go to the restaurant or the barber even if they don't shoot that day to keep it running, and being attached to a range might spook a lot of the dumbass normies in cities.

>>33644357
That's why you have separate areas with a big sign saying "wash your hands before handling firearms"

>>33644770
Fair point.

>>33644632
>sounds just fine attached to this
I didn't mean to piss on your parade, I'm sure there is a place where this combination would work.

It's just that it sounds like a lifestyle gimmick, an association of things you like rather than something practical that's convenient enough to customers to work in most locations.

>>33644665
>>33644770
Well, like I said before, you'll probably have to separate them strongly anyways to have a restaurant and a range meet health requirements for them both, so have a bunch of sinks and signs between them.

>>33644844
Checked. That's true. It's like I said, it would have to have the perfect storm to make it all profitable, even if you just had a random barber rent it out anyways. A range/grill combo is much more easily manageable, I'd agree with that.

I was really saying it more because a bunch of people (Who might just be samefagging) were reflexively calling it gay and numale for some reason, which I didn't understand. It's not like he said a salon/spa or some shit.

>>33644989
>calling it gay and numale for some reason, which I didn't understand
Isn't it obvious? Hipsters have fetishized and appropriated - some would say revived - traditional manly stuff like sailor tattoos, beards, and craft beer.

Them reviving crafts that nobody cared about isn't a bad thing but like everything they do it can get annoyingly phony and labored, hence the namecalling.

>>33645174
Well, I get that, I just didn't think that's what the OP was going for at all.

>>33644134
Open a gun shop if you want to be broke and never make any money for the rest of your life. Otherwise, get the fuck out of small business retail. It sucks dick.

>>33644338
you mean twice a year?

>>33644134
If that became successful, somewhere like Cabelas would just Institute a bar and grill right next to their fudge / coffee shop /whatever makes money shop and you'd be out done. A barber?

"Can i go to the range with an itchy shirt please?" Fuckoff

>>33644134

doesn't have a barbershop but the range in memphis, tn has a restaurant/grill with it

>>33644134
there is a place near me called adventure outdoors

place is fucking massive and has 2 restaurants in it /gun range/gun store/clothing and hunting stuff + outdoor gear/archery range/a loft with a stage for music or stand up comedy/ gunsmithing/ and like 20K guns for sale all along the walls.

it's like a costco for /k/ and they have massive shelves filled with every kind of ammo imaginable

I knew a guy who used to go on there because his dad was a worthless drug addict and ODd. It was really pathetic. He would then shit on the very institutions that could have taught him all of these things.

There's a store/range not fareally from my place that has a grill in it. The foods pretty good and has some neat decoration in the form or patent blueprint copies and such, not a bad place by any stretch.
The only issue with having a barber in the mix is that you'll probably hire a freelancer in a high causes it's own issues, especially if it's close to the resturant with health and safety shenanigans.

>>33646080
>It was really pathetic. He would then shit on the very institutions that could have taught him all of these things.
What?

>>33644349
just make it so you have to shoot first if you're gonna shoot and eat. keep shit sanitary, yo.

>>33644134
I think that for me the quality of the food would be the deciding factor. Like if were strip club food then yeah fuck that. Of course I'd try out any shop at least once.

>>33646165

makes me wonder if some shooting ranges had crazy awesome chefs/food how much more business and customers, and then from that possibly people who werent pr 2nd am. getting into guns

>>33644134
Beer & Bullets

We have servers walking alcohol all up and down the range.

Free drinks to anyone who ND's on range cold.

Oak tree is pretty damn nice, they also have 5 stand, international skeet, sporting clays, and a new archery range. The food is kinda meh but their fries are dank AF. Firearm prices are overly expensive and you have to join a club with annual fees to transfer guns there from other ffls

Thinks a faggy wwbsite could teach him how to be a man. Invites himself along on a backpacking trip with my scout buddies and I. Two Eagles and my slacker Star ass. Badmouths the organization constantly. Doesn't bring any water and gets dehydrated. Wears work boots and doesn't change his socks. Won't listen to us. Won't get his hunters safety class, says he knows all of that stuff. Someone brings him shooting and he is constantly muzzle sweeping and shit. Guy was the worst.

>>33646835
To be fair modern Boy Scouts are a joke in many places and have been rotting from SJW cancer since like 2008, the orginization that taught you to shoot and camp is dead and gone for a daycare run by effeminte faggots.

Yeah. We recently lost our gun range on campus because it was built God knows when in the 50's and 60's and had poor ventilation. Lead abatement for the entire basement and 3 stories above it. I can't imagine the clean room bullshit you would have to do to have one attached to a good establishment.

His mother is Jewish. He's Jewish. When he went to Israel they considered him a Jew. Being Jewish is more than just a religion. That's why Israel is an ethno-religious state, not just a religious state. It's why they do their best to keep for example, Ethiopian Jews, out.

So lets see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Who_is_a_Jew%3F
>All Jewish religious movements agree that a person may be a Jew either by birth or through conversion. According to halakha, a Jew by birth must be born to a Jewish mother. Halakha states that the acceptance of the principles and practices of Judaism does not make a person a Jew. But, those born Jewish do not lose that status because they cease to be observant Jews, even if they adopt the practices of another religion.
So yes, he's Jewish.

How. The. Fuck. Does. It. Matter?

>>33648560
You're the one that's implying it matters. I'm just pointing out facts. Nice job not read or intentionally ignoring the post though. I don't care that he's Jewish but I started off by saying he's Jewish, I'm right, and I'll defend that even if you desperately want to say otherwise. He's a Jew. His mother was a Jew. To every religious Jew he's a Jew even when not practicing. He's Jewish. That's it. Literally just being factual f.a.m. If you're offended by the idea that he's Jewish that's on you, not me.

>>33648612
You clearly thought it mattered enough in
>leftist cosmopolitan Jewish guy
>surprised that he's antigun
To imply that him being Jewish actually mattered, despite him being far more French than Jewish.

>>33648625
Something like 70% of Jews vote democrat. Jews are extremely cosmopolitan and thus hate freedom and those filthy "rural and suburban x-tards". Also he's not far more French than Jewish. You can be both. In the old days he'd be a French Jew. He'd be speaking French with French people and probably speaking both French and Yiddish with family, it just so happens that he was born in the current year. Just watch the episode where he goes to Israel. I'm not even posting
>le ebin >>pole boogieman
I'm being factual. You're the one that making it a bigger deal than it is for whatever reason. You know the kicker? I'm Jewish myself you fuck knuckle, non-practicing but I do have a kippa here somewhere. I'll take a timestamped pic of that with one of my rifles if that will calm your autism.

Yeah, sure. I found the old time stamp so here it is. Sometimes I like to go on /pol/ to fuck with them. They are really more right on some things than they ought to be though. That was part of my crisis of conscious in my teens (not because of them but similar reasons). The religion itself is soulless, the beliefs insane, and honestly it makes the people who really belief slaves to nothing but ritual and repetition. I can't be fucked to spend thirty minutes digging through piles of shit. So what if I'm Jewish or not though? Oh wait, that's right, you're the one who is obsessed with it.

>>33648761

If you want food to be served on the range, you'd better have a good way to prevent lead from tracking into the dining and food prep area.

It's better to have them be on the same lot, but separate buildings, and require people who have been on the range to wash thoroughly.
