Ammo the Dog - The Gun Garage and Shooting Range

"Ask Ammo"

Hi, my name is Ammo. I am one of the store dogs. Rob and Floyd gave me my own blog. It’s called ASK AMMO. I kept telling them to put my brain power (and wicked sharp sense of humor) to better use. As much as I like lying around at the store all day, I thought it was time to be a more productive member of the staff here at The Gun Garage.

If you have a question or could benefit from one of my top-notch tips, fill out the form below. We’ll post the question and my answer within a week or so, unless I’m on vacation or something, then it might take a little longer. 

Ask Ammo...

Q: Do you like the new bulk ammo bins?
Ammo: Floyd and Rob are geniuses. From what I hear from all my pals across the gun world, there’s no one else offering bulk ammo by the pound like we do at the Gun Garage.

Q: Do you know what juju beans are? 
Ammo: I know Floyd smiles when he says it. He must like beans. Misty tells me they have to do with Floyd’s name for our bulk ammo by the pound.

Q: Does the Gun Garage have T-shirts customers can buy? 
Ammo: Yes they have all kinds of cool colors. I’m colorblind, but I still like the fluorescent green one, or should I say bright grey. We also carry Glock shits and hats and other brands.

Q: Who’s your favorite customer? 
Ammo: Do you mean favorite smelling or which one is nicest to Misty and I? My favorite smelling customer I can’t really tell you her name because she probably won’t come back anymore if I tell you. There’s a woman that always comes in with her husband she is the nicest to us. We really like her.

Q: Do you like to talk about politics? 
Ammo: This is a gun store. No one ever talks about politics here. 

Q: Do they ever let you drink from the soda machine or the water fountain?
Ammo: I’m a water guy, but they do have a soda fountain with lots of different brands and all kinds of snacks. I grab a snack every once in a while when they aren’t looking and blame Misty. Can you say cheese crackers!

Q: Rob tells us you really like to watch TV at home? 
Ammo: Yes, I do, Next to chasing targets down the shooting range, watching TV is my favorite past time. I sit on the couch just like a human. They won’t let me on the couch here at the gun garage.

Q: Does the Gun Garage sell concealed carry holster’s, purses and other accessories?
Ammo: What is your opinion on pink or purple pistols? The ladies like them. I personally like red or green.

Q: Do you like signing autographs?
Ammo: People put the paper on the floor and I put my paw on the paper. Easy!

Q: Are you a Scooby Doo fan? 
Ammo: He’s Ok. His voice really gets on my nerves. No dog talks like that. I’m an Underdog fan, I can never get enough of Sweet Polly Purebred. That lassie dog is a smart girl as well. You can you tell I watch lots of old shows. I just am an old soul.

Q: What do you like about working at an indoor shooting range?
Ammo: The main advantage is I don’t freeze my butt off or sweat like a dog (Ha Ha). Floyd or Rob let me out to do my business and I’m right back inside.

Q: Do the gunshots from the shooting range scare you?
Ammo: My name’s ammo, what do you think? The more gunshots I hear, the more money the store makes and the sooner I get an upgrade of my food. I sometimes get a little twitchy when I sleep at night at home. 

Q: Do you wear ear protection?
Ammo: Only when I’m inside the range. 

Q: What’s your favorite thing to do at the store?
Ammo: Besides sleeping most of the day, Misty and I like to chase targets up and down the range when no one is around. The echo is great. We put on this act like we are chasing paper targets like two dumb dogs. Everyone sees to get a kick out of it so we keep the charade going. Believe me, we have the upper-hand.

Q: Do you have a favorite target for the shooting range?
Ammo: The Zombie of course. My favorite show on TV is the Walking Dead. 

Q: Can customers shoot two guns at the same time in the shooting range. 
Ammo: No. Safety first. Everyone knows I can shoot 4 guns at once, so no one ever asks. 

Q: How old does a customer have to be to buy ammunition?
Ammo: 21 years old. That’s 147 in dog years. So basically Ammo is never going to buy any ammo.

Q: Does The Gun Garage offer gun safety classes?
Ammo: Yes. Check our website under the “Training Courses” tab. Rob and Floyd make us be quiet during the classes. 

Q: If a gun owner wants to trade in their old gun for a new one?
Ammo: Potentially. We buy, sell, and trade. We will always want to see the firearm in person to review the condition. We can’t quote pricing for buying your firearm over the phone or online. So basically, leave your rusty gun at home. Ain’t gonna happen. 

Q: Does the Gun Garage offer group events?
Ammo: Yes we do. Call 785-246-GUNS and our team will get you a quote and set you up. There’s a huge event next year for my birthday, so stay tuned.

Q: Do you accept cash or checks?
Ammo: Yes. We accept all major credit cards, checks and cash or payment. I myself like Blue Buffalo Sizzlers with Real Pork Bacon Dog Treats as payment, but Rob and Floyd hog all of them and never get any (Get it? “Hog” at of them?). 

Q: Is it a good idea to become a member of The Gun Garage? 
Ammo: Absolutely! You earn lower range fees, free guest passes, gun rentals and other discounts. The biggest bonus is you get to see me more often. 

Q: How long has your range been open and what was the building before it was a range?
Ammo: The range opened Dec. 16, 2017. The building was a loading dock with 10 garage doors down each side prior to the renovation into the gun store and ranges. I'm in the front in the store.

Q: Who owns the Gun Garage and Shooting Range?
Ammo:The Gun Garage and Shooting Range is owned by Floyd McMillin and Rob Nordyke (My owner). Both of the guys are entrepreneurs owning several other businesses between them. They frequently come to me for investment advice. 

Q: Why do you have to have a membership to shoot at the range?
Ammo: Membership is required because of how we set up our insurance. Believe it or not, it’s hard to find companies who will insure ranges for a reasonable price. It was the only way we could make this business work financially in Topeka, KS.
