Stopped by the St. Louis Park store this afternoon. They were closed. Not that it's my favorite place.
Anyway the old saying goes, hang on to your guns, God, and gold, the three "G's".
I guess this guy never heard of this as the place is posted. But at least we are not alone as cameras are also banned.

I can see the reason to ban cameras.

Nice way to case a place and figure out what to do and how. "Know your Target".

But why advertise, "Knock me off, no one here is armed!!!"

There is a great gold place just North on Hwy 100. The owner is friend of mine and very pro-gun. Valley Coin.

Actually,now that I think about it he only buys gold for scrap, but that's probably what you were looking for anyhow.

I've been to Valley Coin when they were on I394. I thought they were gone as they moved and are not in the yellow pages. Nice place, I will go there next week. Thanks for the info Dean!

You'll be amazed - he's got a bunch more space than the old place, but he's already filled it up. :D

I thought it was " Guns, Gays, and God."

In a SHTF setting I like the 3G assignments as God, guns and generators.
I wouldn't trade any of the three for Gold in a crisis. :)

Gold will be worth a lot more than the US dollar that the US government is printing (bailout) to "solve" the financial crisis.

Maybe, but if you buy gold, you better have it in your possession, or it's like buying shares of stock. YOUR gold in someone else's vault is THEIRS.

Absolutely. The Jews discovered this during and after WWII.

I own Valley Coin, and permit holders are welcome anytime. About two years ago, I moved to 5525 34th Ave North in Crystal, which is on the west side of 100 at 34th Ave N. Check my website, www.ValleyCoin.com for over 10,000 items and contact info (but call for current pricing and availability on bullion items- some of the pricing is not current). Thanks, Craig

Welcome, Craig!

As a person in the business of sitting on big piles of valuable, portable goods, I'm not surprised that you have highly realistic views about personal protection.

Stick around!

Andrew
