Stay Away from Wild Bill's Trading Post

I don't think this will matter to most on here but if you're ever perusing the local gun shops in Rome, Georgia stay away from Wild Bill's Trading Post.

Why:

1) They have next to nothing on the racks. We're talking 10 rifles and 7 or 8 pistols at best.

2) The owner/operator will try to impress you with his "30 years of gun knowledge and gunsmithing" and then proceed to tell you something like the .223 and the 5.45x39 (tapered case Russian round) are the exact same round and can both be fed through the same gun and he does it with his AK and AR15 all the time. This in addition to trying to push all the ammo panic/shortage crap and convince you to panic purchase.


Tom's Gun Shop, CW Barrett Co. (no relation to gun maker Barrett), and Rocky Mountain Supply are the only gun shops in the Rome area to visit.
