Since you were the ones so far who had interacted on this post, thought I'd share this too- [mcall.com]

Back in 2016 I was still living in Emmaus, and can remember the controversy over Xtreme Gun Worx wanting to move their business into the borough. Giddings and the relatively few others who had agreed with her were actively going around the neighborhood trying to round up more supporters for their cause, but they were outnumbered by those who weren't at all bothered by another gun store moving into town. Not surprisingly, Xtreme Gun Worx has not contributed in any way to an increase in violent crime in the neighborhood, and the schools in Emmaus are pretty secure. At that time, I lived about a block away from Xtreme Gun Worx, and often walked past there on the way to a convenience store that was across the street.

Over the years the only incident in Emmaus I can recall that involved homicide by firearm was back in August 2000, when 15 year old Kevin Kleppinger (who was a friend of mine at the time) was shot point blank in the head by 25 year old Michael Gambler.-

I love it! And I noticed it is a veteran owned business, which I also like. I looked them up online. Looks like a great business.
