I support local where i can. Franchise / larger corporations have their downsides

Have known David Tipple since he first started Gun City. Always struck me as being an ok guy, he’s been a passionate family man over the years and is equally passionate about firearms ownership and use in NZ. Over the years he’s spent a bit of coin on sponsorship and promotion of gun sports, more than most can say. He’s out to make money but that’s the name of the game. Fair enough a fair percentage of his employees in the various shops are prize cocks but there’s also some excellent ones, again like any business. Hunting and Fishing are the same. Anyway shop where you like. I tend to deal within NZ and support NZ companies, not use them to check goods fit for purpose then order overseas like a number of members on here and general public.
