What happened to Forsyth Gun & Pawn (Forsyth Classics and Armory)

[Gingerbeard Man]

This was my go-to spot to shoot the **** when I lived in Cumming just around the corner. I was just made aware that they abruptly closed without explanation in November. Anyone know what happened?

Probably too much government rules, regulations, and taxes that put them out of business.

I’m seeing a trend of FFL’s shutting down

I'm pretty sure that it had changed hands sometime after the taco lunch meet & greet. I hadn't been back since then.

About the time we left Cumming they switched to Forsyth Classics and Armory. A lot of high dollar stuff. I can't imagine that's sustainable in a brick and mortar outfit unless you have a national reach. I'm only speculating that sitting on inventory put them out. I'm hoping it's not the BS from what I've heard about small clerical errors causing FFL's to be put out of business.

Was going to visit them last weekend while we were kind of out that way but obviously didn't. Hate to see small shops like that close up.

Jason got tired of the ATF bullying him for over a year and closed the doors. Word is there will be a new owner soon.

Add Hi-caliber in Holly Springs to the list. Drove by yesterday and looked like a banner with a new name was hanging up out front. I think it said “Gunsmoke”?
