Our Story
A Brief History
We are a husband and wife team who believe Jesus is our Lord and Savior. We also increasingly believe that we are meant to be plugged into our community.
Back in the fall of 2022, we discovered a need for a full-service firearms store serving local residents, enhancing the local products and services for our neighbors. JR Firearms was launched on June 16, 2023, with a small stock of firearms, ammunition, shooting accessories, hunting gear, concealment furniture and purses, cleaning tools, and reloading supplies.
Since then, we have more than doubled our stock of firearms, increased our ammunition stock, added ballistics gel, GOAT guns, Urban Carry holsters, Jessie & James Handbags, and big name brands of knives including SpyderCo, Kershaw, Bear & Sons, and CobraTec, along with much more!
Upcoming Products and Services
From day one, we have requested feedback and suggestions from our patrons and taken action to fulfill their requests. Partially because of that and from our own ideas, we have been pursuing many initiatives to grow and provide the community with valuable services.
- We have been in discussions with the local Police Department about holding firearm safety courses in our facility. The first class is scheduled for March 19, 2024.
- We are constantly in the process of partnering with local organizations, such as Main Street Roasters, the Nappanee Conservation Club, and the Chamber of Commerce.
- The number of wholesale contracts we have signed for the store has increased every time when needed, to provide more selections in all of our product categories.
With these initiatives, and many more, we hope to create the #1 supplier for shooting sports within a 30 minute radius.
