Free Gun Primer Weekend At Bass Pro Shops Seminars
Sweepstakes and Fun for the Firearms Enthusiasts.
Springfield, MO –-(Ammoland.com)- Many first-time gun owners have questions about their gun in particular and about owning a firearm in general.
The recent ammunition shortages created a new interest in reloading—the process of reusing ‘spent’ cartridges. Bass Pro Shops will welcome firearm novices and enthusiasts to be a part of Gun Primer Weekend at all participating locations (U.S. stores only excluding Destin, Miami and Branson).
Bass Pro Shops has developed the Gun Primer Weekend, to provide advice and assistance on everything related to guns and accessories.
