38th & Lafayette Rd by the mall

Yeah its kind of hard to miss. Its like a giant festering boil on the ass of Lafayette.

 

[churchmouse]

My one and only trip to Don's saw me walking back out the door in under a minute laughing.

We call it the comedy store. The prices and the help are hilarious

 

[Sylvain]

Yeah its kind of hard to miss. Its like a giant festering boil on the ass of Lafayette.

It's downtown Indy, not far from to the Circle Monument, right?

I dont know the city very well.

 

[Dirtebiker]

Think about it, the only dealer in the State that doesn't have any presence on INGO.............

Not true! Along with many others on here!

No, it's on Lafayette road, north of 38th street, north east side

I can't believe he has been in business this long. Judging by his house, he must be selling a lot of overpriced guns

Most of the entire area is a festering boil. Daily occurrences at the mall. Simon even got rid of the mall a few years ago.

near West side just inside of the 465 loop. I think it says "Guns" on the outside of the building about 15 different places LOL

I don't get it. Don sells guns. He sells enough guns that he has been open and in business for over 40 years. He's the same way now as he was when he first started out selling guns. Not everyone knows that Don demands a premium price for his goods and services...but don't blame Don for them being ignorant of his ways, he will soon show them the light.

It's America...go buy your guns where you want to. Don has every right to be Don, and we have every right to just let Don be. Warn the others, and then go buy it mail order or online. Afterall, what you paid is the true cost of what you got. Right?

I don't shop at Don's. I don't like Don's Guns, I don't feel welcome there, and I feel like I'm about to have my socks stolen without even having my shoes taken off. I'm glad Don is here though. We need more gun stores.

You know, I don't like Don's either, but I have to agree with Pistol on this one. You can't blame someone for other people's ignorance. He's a bad person, and a crooked businessman. But he sure does sell alot of guns.

Perception is everything...

I don't get it. Don sells guns. He sells enough guns that he has been open and in business for over 40 years.
The perception is that he is crooked. Rumors take them for what they are worth, is that the gun shop is not his only enterprise.

He's the same way now as he was when he first started out selling guns.
Talk to some older retired cops, Don is not the same as he was when he first showed up many years ago.

Not everyone knows that Don demands a premium price for his goods and services...but don't blame Don for them being ignorant of his ways, he will soon show them the light.

Perception is everything. The law abiding gun enthusiast community does not need a business that is perceived as corrupt, breaking the law or supporting criminal behavior. It causes distrust among the community in general and gives fuel to the anti 2A groups. It supports the stereotype of a shady gun shop. It does none of us any good. Ironically if you dismiss the perception of Dons Guns as less than on the level he still is clearing against your 2A rights. At the very least Dons Guns is a black eye for the gun enthusiast community. So yes by all means warn everyone, educate everyone.

Perception is everything...

We agree on everything.

There is story now where he is on the news offering a reward of 10,0000 for information on the killer of the young man and his niece that got killed in Cumberland. IOt also says in the story that he is retired. A lady named Brenda is now the President of Don's. Here's the story:

It is great for Don to step up like that. I hope it does help to catch this Scum.
It was strange that Tuchman Cleaners ran the add with the Indy Star article about Don's reward.---This is the same cleaners that have a "No Guns" sign at the front of their stores??? Or at least used to...Bill.

 

[hrdwarhax]

So Don is offering a reward for people killed, likely by his guns. fantastic.

I went there once to use his range before I had my own gun. All I can say is wow. I went with 2 other guys to use the same lane. now it was late and we were the only ones there. I felt safe.....er inside than outside but felt a LOT safer once we had the sig we shot. his prices are dumb and misleading not to mention rediculous. the only reason I would EVER go back would be to hold a gun im looking at buying elsewere, Like at GM. that is the only similarity I see between the 2 places tho.

what GM lacks in variety, it makes uf for in safety and friendlyness. IMHO

 

[ATM]

I heard he's a menber, he goes by the name ATM.
He always says he's not here to make money, he just loves to OC.

Not sure if it's true or not ...

Ha ha ha, can you lean in a little closer to my microphone?

 

[pops66goat]

Ive seen him in there before too

Nice. Practice safe handling, much, Don?

 

[tsbolton]

Only purpose

Only thing Don's is good for is stop in and get a feel for a gun you are looking to buy elsewhere. If you ever get a chance to talk to his staff they are good for a couple laughs.
