surfj, I just looked at your thread and you say 'Hooters by the mall in Spokane'... did you mean the one by Northtown Mall or the Spokane Valley Mall? I don't add businesses without the specific address so we don't avoid respectable businesses by mere association.

sorry about that. There is only one in Spokane, and it is by the valley mall.

Okay, sorry about that, Google seems to think there's two, but I realized it put it in the middle of Spokane because they only had the city but no address and it had the same phone number as the one in Spokane Valley. Weird. It will now go on the Watch List.

See? I really do try to keep this thing updated... it's just easier when I'm not in classes (spring break).

As far as I'm aware, it is. When I get a chance after I get home around 3-5am tonight, I'll run through and see if I missed anything.

Okay, I just ran through all the posts *glares at Bear* and only found two that may need adding. One was American General Financial which I'll try to call tomorrow about their signage.

The other was Flaming Joe's. Though, I couldn't find anything on that (the search function seems to be sucking a lot recently on the boards). Can you tell me whether they qualify for the DNP list or the Watch List surfj?...

flaming joes on the DNP list for sure. Its clearly posted on their door, but they cite the Rcw that refers to 21 and over areas, which they do not fall under. I did speak with the owner though and she confirmed, she has a no firearms policy, for everybody except for LEO's. Its too bad too, because they have the best wings in Spokane hands down.

red robin should be added also. I know there is much debate about them, but I have personally seen their written policy banning open or concealed firearms by employees and guests. I can get a copy of it from my gf, scan it, and post it here if nobody believes it. I know people eat there and don't have issues at certain ones, but they also should be on the DNP list, per the requirements for such listing.

I believe you, but due to so many people having non-incidents at multiple stores, I'd like to have an email sent to 'corporate' to see if maybe it's at the discretion of the managers or if the managers are just ignoring the policy. If it's at their discretion, yet the policy is generally no firearms, then I think we go store-by-store (yes, I realize this is somewhat against what I put in the first post, yet I hadn't anticipated a corporate policy that wasn't enforced by its managers on a fairly large scale).

Nah... but I wouldn't mind shooting with you. :p

As long as we talk guns and not politics (or who's got the most experience in what) then I think we could get along just fine.

That would be great, except I rarely get that far north on that side of the Sound anymore. The VA Hospital just near Spokane Street is about as far north as I get. I do however shoot several times a month over here. Regardless of rumors to the contrary I do not have radical views, just attitudes.

Bobby, thanks for the heads-up. You're on the Pro-Gun List.

Looks like you have some good reviews for the place, too: http://www.insiderpages.com/b/3723386881
And good on ya for supporting Project Linus: http://www.projectlinus-sps.org/Pages/News.html

I rarely get down that far South (unless for an OCDO meet) as I live in Edmonds, 15 minutes North of Seattle, but if I'm down there, I'll certainly try to stop in and say hello.

JAC,

thanks for the links. i didn't even know those were there. Lynn from Project Linus rents a box from me and i print her quarterly flyers for her. shes a very sweet lady.

hope you get a chance to swing on in some day. i don't OC at work since most of my clientel are middle age-ish women that don't seem to keen on the idea of firearms around, but i CC every day. its Lakewood after all. ;)

thanks for adding me to the list!

Bobby

I decided to check out the Sharp Shooting indoor range & gun shop at 1200 North Freya, here in Spokane. When I got to the building there is a big red stop sign at the door that reads "All Weapons Must Be Cased."
I talked to the guy at the counter and I quote "as long as it can't be seen either on your person or in a case, you're welcome to bring it in. No Open Carry Allowed."
Their policy doesn't allow you to handle the guns in the display case either. Guns can only be handled on the range. Nice range but the prices were a bit high for range time, weapons, accessories and gear.
