    I came across F3 Tactical on one of my usual trip to Lowe's. It's situated near the K-Mart, in the section of mini-mall that is perpendicular to Lowe's / Petsmart. The store is very well stocked with high-end gear (BFG, LaRue, Daniels Defense, HSGI, etc.) and is currently tailored to the carbine/rifle crowd. They have an extensive assortment of apparel and footwear, along with high-end uppers, optics, sharps, plate carriers, etc.

    Jimmy, the owner/general manager/shoot-the-***-guy, is a really nice fella. He's got a real passion for firearms, and I don't think the smile faded from his face the entire time I was in the shop. I spent a good while talking to him about my new Colt, how to get it slung up to my liking, how to lube it, etc. I had unknowingly been running the Colt too dry, and Jimmy quickly walked me through how to do a detailed strip of the upper and where to lube everything.

    I'll be visiting this store much more often as I configure the Colt to my taste. I'd like to see them get their FFL, and I'd visit much more often if they had reasonably priced handgun and rifle ammunition.

    Overall, I can highly recommend stopping by the store. They have probably 3x the floorspace of NOVA Armament with a much greater selection of gear. But most importantly, they're another small and local business that I want to survive!

    Sounds cool. Man the AR thing is in right now! Pretty good time to open such a shop, with an election looming. I bet he does well through the beginning of November.
