Andy is such a great guy. I visited the store back at the end of 2020 while deployed on the southwest border mission. While in Phoenix taking a Soldier to the airport I decided to visit his store. Andy and I spoke for an hour or so. He is just as passionate and enthusiastic in person as in his videos. Long story short, I left that day with a few kits that I worked on in my limited personal time while deployed. Thank you Andy for speaking with me that day and providing me with a little respite from the daily grind.

Amazing to see so much cool stuff. I have been a customer for about a year now and am amazed by your selection, prices, fast delivery, secure packaging and customer service. I love that you are now branching out to manufacture your own models, your success is well deserved, you show exactly how a business should be run!!!

If you had a one or two Saturdays a month warehouse, walk thru sale, the "impulse buys" would be like mining money. So many interesting things that many might never know about unless they walked through those aisles.
